    dirmngr: Use a longer timer tick interval.
    
    * dirmngr/dirmngr.c (TIMERTICK_INTERVAL): Always use 60 seconds like
    we did for WindowsCE.

    Given that the timer tick is only used for housekeeping tasks and
    these are done every 10 minutes, it makes no sense to use 2 seconds.
    The minor drawback is tha the housekeeping may be delayed by one
    minute.
    
    NB: For the purpose of power saving, we already make sure that the
    process wakes up at the full second so that it is synchronized to the
    wakeup time of other processes.
