Generated keys may be unsuitable for encryption #184

Description

@dalai4git

In openpgp/key_generation.go the rsa.GenerateKey function from the standard library is used. As far as I can tell, the new key may have primes such that p > q, which is not according to RFC 4880 and can lead to occasional problems when decrypting using gpg.
