Given a revoked keyring containing only:
BC1FBE4D2826A0B51E47ED62E2539214C6C11350
We should only disable this specific keyid. This change enforces that the
contents of the -revoked keyring file are full fingerprints which can uniquely
identify a key.

Partially addresses FS#35478. This does nothing to confirm whether or not the
key was successfully disabled -- a ridiculously simple request which appears to
be far too difficult for gpg to manage.

Seriously, wtf gpg. The only indication that the key was successfully disabled
appears to come from the output that we dump to /dev/null:
gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir `/etc/pacman.d/gnupg'
pub 2048R/C6C11350 created: 2012-11-30 expires: never usage: SC
trust: unknown validity: marginal
*** This key has been disabled

You can try to use the key as a recipient for an encrypted message, but this
seems to only fail with INV_RECP, e.g.:
$ gpg --homedir /etc/pacman.d/gnupg --batch -aer BC1FBE4D2826A0B51E47ED62E2539214C6C11350 --status-fd=1 <<<'' 2>/dev/null
[GNUPG:] INV_RECP 0 BC1FBE4D2826A0B51E47ED62E2539214C6C11350
BUT... INV_RECP doesn't say anything about the reason the recipient is invalid.
It might be invalid because it's disabled, and it might be invalid because it
can't be found. So... blah. Suggestions welcome.
Also, just a point of clarification -- I assume that we disable keys rather
than revoke signatures out of concern that the key could be trustworthy
based on signatures other than those of the master key owners?
