Description

I have `GNUPGHOME` set to a directory under `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`. However, any of the keybase pgp subcommands are still expecting/recreating `~/.gnupg` rather than respecting `GNUPGHOME`.

```
$ keybase --version
keybase version 1.0.14-1
```

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior with GNUPGHOME set under XDG_CONFIG_HOME and a keybase PGP subcommand, then inspect the relevant PGP command entry points. Compare the command's use of GNUPGHOME with the recreated ~/.gnupg path; done means the configured GNUPGHOME is respected.
