  1. sync: add a 5 second timeout to gemato's openpgp refresh

    If it takes more than 5 seconds to download a miniscule file from
    https://gentoo.org/.well-known/openpgpkey/ then something has gone
    dreadfully wrong. Most commonly, what went wrong is that the user has
    broken ipv6 connectivity and requests simply hangs forever (no joke --
    it doesn't implement Happy Eyeballs and closed the multiple bug reports
    as "please use stackoverflow to ask questions about how to use requests,
    we are not a support forum").
    
    Pass a timeout so that we eventually give up and try ipv4 instead. This
    is a crude hack and the proper solution is to make gemato handle this
    better, but until gemato is fixed to use a better download library we do
    the best we can.
