I propose, again, to drop gpg and replace it with some signify
implementation, or similar simple tool.
GPG 1.x was already too complex for basesystem.
And keep in mind upstream keys today add *no security*; they're just
required to sit on the grimoires, almost like a hash in practice, but
more complex.

Based on the early tests, I expect a reduction of 80% on my musl-based
variant, which should be complete by next month.
I plan to drop from basesystem even bash eventually, as mksh can run
most of sorcery code.
So we can dream...
