Use keys.openpgp.org instead of pgp.mit.edu (#11249)

The SKS Keyserver network has been under attack with poisoned
certificates since at least 2019. Downloading a poisoned certificate has
the awful side-effect of completely breaking your keyring and most
software has now moved off the network and uses the keys.openpgp.org
which has a different protocol instead - in fact one whereby emails are
verified.

For more details regarding the attack see: https://gist.github.com/rjhansen/67ab921ffb4084c865b3618d6955275f

## Verify GPG signature
Gitea signs all binaries with a [GPG key](https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&fingerprint=on&search=0x2D9AE806EC1592E2) to prevent against unwanted modification of binaries. To validate the binary, download the signature file which ends in `.asc` for the binary you downloaded and use the gpg command line tool.
