gpgsm-2.0.x does not work with option --homedir, needs GNUPGHOME

Description

If I use gpgsm from the 2.0 series (up to 2.0.29) with option --homedir,
gpg-agent (started automatically) does not use that home directory and fails to
find private keys.
This does not happen in the 2.1 series.

As a workaround, exporting GNUPGHOME to the same homedir works.

We wont fix that because it has been fixed in 2.1 and backporting make no sense
given that an easy workaround is available.
