75463d5895 doc: Basic operation of the python bindings
* Added sample code for encrypting some text to a single key.
* Basically I'm just lifting existing production code and changing the
  key IDs from mine to "0x12345678DEADBEEF" for these first few
  examples.
* I'll fill in the text description after.
* Note: due to my regional location, I might split some tasks into
  more commits in order to be sure no work gets lost in case of
  emergency (or to put it another way: I know Telstra too well to
  trust them).

a98f2c556f doc-howto: fundamental aspects of GPGME vs Python
* Added a section for those pythonistas who are too used to web
  programming.  Stressed that it's not simply not RESTful, it's not
  even REST-like.
* Letting me move on to drawing a very loose parallel between a
  session and a context.  The differences should become obvious in the
  subsequent sections.

e8adab68f8 doc: Added multiple TODOs for inclusion in the HOWTO
* Some instructions to include are fairly obvious; as with encryption,
  decryption and signature verification.
* Some are a little less obvious.
* This includes the requests received to specifically include subkey
  management (adding and revoking subkeys on a primary key that's
  being retained.
* Added the UID equivalents to the list, as well as key selection
  matters (and may or may not include something for handling group
  lines since that involves wrapping a CLI binary).
* Key control documentation and examples requested by Mike Ingle of
  confidantmail.org.

6f2e2e0f15 LaTeX headers
* Set LaTeX headers to enable ligatures and a 12pt font by default.
* Paper size left for regional defaults.
* Using XeLaTeX for easier font control.
* Using default LaTeX font of Latin Main, but that's easy enough to change.

fccd2ea387 TODO
* Updated TODO.
* The entirety of the old TODO has been replaced with either more
  relevant tasks or goals for the examples and a more measured
  approach to the docs and why, in this project, Org Mode trumps reST,
  even though it's Python through and through.

2fac017618 python: Rename Python module from PyME to gpg.
This follows weeks of discussion on the gnupg-devel mailing list.
Hopefully it will make it easier for people using Python to use GnuPG
in the future.
