doc, gpgme: should'nt GPGME_DEBUG be mentioned

Just checking the gpgme docs, shouldn't GPGME_DEBUG be mentioned there?
There are some traces of if in the NEWS file, but nothing in the .info.

The debug output is not yet complete and consistent across the GPGME
functionality. Reading it can be extremely confusing if you don't
know the internals very well (and even then some guessing is involved
due to the lack of completeness).

Thanks,

Looks like the paragraph above can go directly in as part of the
documentation. :)

Please, please document GPGME_DEBUG! I am searching for it too often,
a little paragraph should be easy to write.
