gnupg: Automatically fallback to 'always policy when non-interactive.
Previously to this change, the 'guix refresh' download policy (--key-download)would default to 'interactive', which would throw a backtrace when guix was invoked with its stdin not connected to a peusdo terminal (tty). This change makes the new default value 'auto' use interactive only in an interactive environment, with 'always' used as fallback. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix refresh): Adjust doc. * etc/completion/fish/guix.fish: Adjust accordingly. * etc/completion/zsh/_guix (_guix_list_installed_packages): Likewise. * guix/gnupg.scm (gnupg-verify*): Change default #:key-download argument value to 'auto. Update doc. Validate argument. Raise an error in case read-line returns #<eof>. * guix/import/gnu.scm (gnu-package->sexp): <#:key-download>: Change default value to 'auto. * guix/import/gnu.scm (gnu->guix-package): <#:key-download>: Likewise. * guix/scripts/import/gnu.scm (%options): Add "auto" to accepted --key-download values. (%default-options): Set default key-download option to the 'auto value. (show-help): Update doc. * guix/scripts/refresh.scm (show-help): Update doc. (update-package) <#:key-download>: Change default value to 'auto. Update doc. * guix/upstream.scm (download-tarball): <#:key-download>: Likewise. (package-update): Likewise.
