Fix parse_pub_line to allow an empty User-ID field for a pub record. (see
#3564)
A key whose primary uid record has an empty User-ID will result in the
user being unable to use the key to encrypt an email in mutt. This is
because the mutt functions for key selection iterate through the address
fields of a key for matching against and for displaying to the user.
This change allows a pgp_uid_t record to be created for a pub record
whose User-ID field is blank. So the key will have one address record,
albeit with a null addr field.
