[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#842015: [PINENTRY PATCH] gnome3: Test if Gcr System Prompter is available at startup.

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

* gnome3/pinentry-gnome3.c (gcr_system_prompt_available): new function
  tests whether it is possible to create a GcrSystemPrompt; (main):
  use gcr_system_prompt_available() to decide whether to fall back to
  curses or not.
