gpg: Default to --auto-key-locate "local,wkd" and --auto-key-retrieve.

* g10/gpg.c (main): Add KEYSERVER_AUTO_KEY_RETRIEVE to the default
keyserver options.  Set the default for --auto-key-locate to
"local,wkd".  Reset that default iff --auto-key-locate has been given
in the option file or in the commandline.
* g10/getkey.c (parse_auto_key_locate): Work on a copy of the arg.
