gnupg: disable gui/pinentry support by default
This solves the dependency cycle in gcr alternatively so there won't be two gnupg store paths in a standard NixOS system which has udisks2 enabled by default. NixOS users are expected to use the gpg-agent user service to pull in the appropriate pinentry flavour or install it on their systemPackages and set it in their local gnupg agent config instead.
