[BUG] OpenPGP Kleopatra keys cannot be worked with. #627

Describe the Bug

Kleopatra generates OpenPGP keys with the unofficial AEAD Encrypted Data packet (type 20). BouncyCastle fails to recognize this key packet and throws an exception whenever such key is encountered.

An issue to this exists but has been ignored for years: #497

This has also been reported to StackOverflow since 2022 and has not yet been fixed.

Developers using Java do not face this issue as noted in the StackOverflow post, though I've not verified this.
