Release notes 

- Add support for repository fingerprints, and retrieve them from
  openprinting.org when available.
- Allow binary drivers if they have a valid GPG fingerprint on a trusted
  https:// site. This is a lot weaker than our usual archive trust chain,
  but as it's very hard to get a chain of trust to printer driver vendors,
  relying on good SSL certificates is the next best step, and still much
  better than what the average user does when searching and downloading a
  driver by himself.
- Add API for retrieving and installing a GPG key based on a fingerprint.
- Merge add_repository() into install_package(), which is much more
  practical for verifying whether a package in a new repository ist
  trustworthy.
