Don't enable pinentry loopback mode for gpgsm
* lisp/epg.el (epg--start): Passphrase entry through the minibuffer is currently not supported with gpgsm, therefore don't pass "--pinentry-mode loopback" as an argument when the protocol is CMS. (Bug#67012) * doc/misc/epa.texi (GnuPG Pinentry): Document it.
