Gpgtools MacGPG2 → 2.2.17

Reproduce

Upload public team key to sks hkps cluster. Current key size 1,2MB.

Currently

Upload fails with unspecific error message. Problem is, that gpg does not give a precise error message for this case. Talked to werner and aheinecke and a fix for that is already commited to gpg: https://dev.gnupg.org/rG21b674097442a54ae889a90d708639b257ba43db
dirmngr: Better for error code for http status 413.

* dirmngr/ks-engine-hkp.c (send_request): New case for 413.
* dirmngr/ks-engine-http.c (ks_http_fetch): Ditto.
* dirmngr/ocsp.c (do_ocsp_request): Ditto.

Expected

Once that is in place, we should workaround the upload limit. gpg devs are not looking to fix stuff around key servers as autocrpyt or wkd will be the way to go. If a workaround is possible without too much effort, we probably should implement it.
