[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#850982: Add instructions to disable gpg-agent user service in README.Debian

Package: gnupg-agent
Version: 2.1.17-4
Severity: normal

The gpg-agent and dirmngr services are now auto-enabled for user sessions,
which is actually a nice improvement.

Can we tweak the instructions present in the README.Debian to include the
commands required to disable this for a single user, and also globally?

I do not want to auto-start these services for the root user. I also want to
disable auto-start completely in servers I'm logging into. I think both are
pretty common scenarios and deserve special mention, as systemctl --user
disable won't work some might expect.
