Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 dev with apt 1.2.7 and on executing "apt-key list" I'm sometimes noticing that there are expired keys. I could removed them manually each but it would be useful if apt-key would provide an additional argument (for example "clean") that does automatically delete these keys.

(b) we encourage people to use files in trusted.gpg.d.
(c) we encourage use of keyring packages to do (b)
(d) we stopped depending on gnupg
