pgp: Key: Don't use short (8 chars) identifiers

Niels De Graef requested to merge wip/nielsdg/dont-use-short-keyid into master

Short key IDs (8 characters) are susceptible to collision attacks: it's quite easy to create a key with exactly the same short keyid. As such, start using the long key id (16 characters).
