Add algo and keygrip columns to Kleo's certificate view
Testing, NormalPublic

Description

It is useful to have the algorithm and also the keygrip as columns so that selecting for example keys with rsa2048 will be easier. Granted, for LibrePGP (aka OpenPGP) we can only show the algorithm of the primary key - but that is enough of a hint for many use cases. These columns should not be enabled by default.

Tested with Gpg4win-4.3.2-beta23:

Columns are there, but when I double-click on a *public* key, the Keygrip is no longer displayed:

The keygrips reappear if you restart Kleo.

On a fresh install Version 3.2.2.2405000+git~ (Gpg4win-4.3.2-beta35) are now all available columns displayed by default:

This was not intended. IIRC the new ones from this ticket should be hidden by default and for the old ones the default shouldn't have changed.

I have to correct myself. After restarting Kleopatra, only the following columns are shown, without any changes from my side:

Deleting the one certificate in the list and importing it again does then keep those columns, too.
Only when I Install the Testversion on a new VM I see all columns until I restart Kleopatra.

If there is not something obvious causing this I wonder if we should just leave it as it is, hardly anyone will notice it, probably.

fixed in https://invent.kde.org/pim/kleopatra/-/merge_requests/243; we were not calling the visibility logic when initially creating the view.

Columns are now displayed as expected with a fresh installation, too.
