* bug#28202: 26.0.50; Loading package.el should not start a subprocess

Loading package.el initializes the variable `package-check-signature',
which starts a GnuPG subprocess.  This process might then be affected by
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnupg/+bug/1285390, causing
infinite hangs that can only be worked around by restarting the
machine.  I think that in general loading packages should not start
subprocesses to increase robustness.  Possible the initialization of
`package-check-signature' should be delayed until signature checks are
actually attempted.
