gpg: New function to printed a detailed error code.

* g10/misc.c (print_reported_error): New.
--

Often the user is only interested in a catch all error code like "not
found" but sometimes it is useful to also see the real reason.  By
this function this can easily be achieved.  Example:

  err = search_for_key (keyid)
  if (err)
    {
      log_info ("error locating key '%s': %s\n",
                keyid, gpg_strerror (GPG_ERR_NOT_FOUND));
      print_reported_error (err, GPG_ERR_NOT_FOUND);
    }

results in

  gpg: error locating key 'foobar': not found
  gpg: (reported error: no keyring <keybox>)

where the second line is only printed in verbose mode and if ERR is
not GPG_ERR_NOT_FOUND.
