Kleopatra: List newly generated OpenPGP certificate with validation
Testing, NormalPublic

Description

After generating a new OpenPGP certificate Kleopatra lists the certificate to ensure that it is immediately available in the certificate list. This listing is done without validation so that for a brief moment (depending on the time a regular full listing of all certificates takes) the certificate is listed as "not checked". A side effect of this is that the Status column may be too narrow to fit the text "VS-NfD compliant" because the column width is adjusted to the text "not checked" (see https://dev.gnupg.org/T7227#195685).

ikloecker moved this task from Backlog to WIP on the gpd5x board.

Apart from checking the gpgme logs to see if validation is enabled for the key listing this can be tested indirectly by verifying that the Status column isn't too narrow after generating a new certificate in an empty keyring in a VSD version (see https://dev.gnupg.org/T7227#195685).

Let's backport this for VSD 3.3 even if https://dev.gnupg.org/T7227#195685 is just a cosmetic issue. The first impression counts.

Backported for VSD 3.3
