[Bug 219764] kmail cannot sign emails

Found a few issues:
*) The test to make sure the problem lies outside kmail is:
echo "test" | gpg -ase -r 0xYOURKEYID | gpg
If you get 2 pinentry dialogs here, but kmail running in the same environment
can't decrypt, we have a kmail problem.
*) In every test (with and without gpg-agent) kmail could sign mails, and
self-encrypt mails (no surprise there) but decryption is dependent on working
gpg-agent
*) gpg-agent appears not to work if misconfigured. Specifically it complains
on startup about its log file/socket not existing, then gets into an undefined
state where it doesn't service requests. Please start gpg-agent manually and
see if there are any odd messages on the console. I am not 100% sure that the
missing logfile causes the useless state.
*) kmail seems unable to decrypt without gpg-agent, when using gpgme. I'm
investigating that.
*) kgpg writes config to the obsolete ~/.gnupg/options instead of
~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
