#36 support gpg-connect-agent as a means to detect if an agent is running

[Thomas Harning Jr.]

GPG_AGENT_INFO is indicated as not used by gpg2 and there is a more reliable means of detecting if the agent is available (which has the side effect of auto-creating an agent instance).

Attached is a patch that allows the prior GPG_AGENT_INFO logic to be used, but if there is no agent detected through that means, it will try to use gpg-connect-agent if present.
