Unlike most other keys, the default key is encoded using the name `default` in the file system, but inside the key name is empty. If one actually stores the key name `default` inside, the key is rejected by `validate_key_name`. If one does `git-crypt add-gpg-user` without `-k`, the default key is being used leaving the key name empty and things work. If one specifies `-k default` however, it actually stores the invalid key name `default`. The resulting key file is always rejected by `validate_key_name`. This commit changes the behaviour of `-k default` to behave as if no `-k` were given.
