dirmngr: Add option--user-agent and always use a User-Agent header.
* dirmngr/dirmngr.h (opt): Add user_agent. * dirmngr/dirmngr.c (oUserAgent): New. (opts): Add "user-agent". (parse_rereadable_options): Set option. * dirmngr/ks-engine-hkp.c (send_request): Send User-Agent. * dirmngr/ks-engine-http.c (ks_http_fetch): Ditto. * dirmngr/ocsp.c (do_ocsp_request): Ditto. -- Note that the http_open_document function is not used by dirmngr. If it ever gets used we may want to add a way to configure the http.c module with a user-agent string, so that it is send by the send_request function and we do not need to explictly do that in the caller.
