pacman-key master key generation
This enables pacman-key, during --init, to generate a single secret key
for the pacman keyring if one is not present. This will be used as the
root of the web of trust for those that do not wish to manage it with
their own key, as will be the default.
This does not preclude later adding other secret keys to the keyring, or
removing this one- we simply ensure you have at least one secret key
available.
