gpg: Allow to freeze faked system time.
* g10/gpg.c (main): If the parameter for --faked-system-time ends with a '!', freeze time at the specified point. * common/gettime.c (gnupg_set_time): Allow to freeze the time at an arbitrary time instead of only the current time. * doc/gpg.texi: Update documentation for --faked-system-time. -- This patch allows the user to modify the behavior of the --faked-system-time option: by appending a '!' to the parameter, time in GnuPG will be frozen at the specified time, instead of advancing normally from that time onward.
