Rename/separate out into app and module
This still needs a lot more work before release. In particular, I have
to figure out what I'm going to do about the `passphrase` option. It's
probably better to both not require it, in which case no signing is done
(only encryption), and to instead allow a path to a file to be
specified.
The other big puzzle would be how on earth to write automated tests for
it... I may end up imitating however Mail::GnuPG is testing itself.
