Description

agent: Make --allow-mark-trusted the default.

* agent/gpg-agent.c (opts, main): Add option --no-allow-mark-trusted.
Put this option into the gpgconf-list.
(main): Enable opt.allow_mark_trusted by default.
* tools/gpgconf-comp.c (gc_options_gpg_agent): Replace
allow-mark-trusted by no-allow-mark-trusted.
* agent/trustlist.c (agent_marktrusted): Always set the "relax" flag.

These changes have been in effect for the Gpg4win Windows version
since 2011-01-24 and thus first released with Gpg4win 2.1.0. Given
the current state of PKIX it does not make any sense to lure the Unix
user into false security by making it harder to trust self-signed or
CAcert certificates.
