Pacman installs the keyrings into /usr/share/pacman/keyrings
because that's what Arch does. I guess that archlinux.gpg may
move to /usr/share/keyrings, but there are other files (lists
of trusted and revoked keys), which are specific to pacman's libalpm,
so I think they deserve a directory on it's own. If archlinux.gpg
moves, it can be symlinked into /usr/share/pacman/keyrings.

This has the downside that it'll add the dependency on gnupg,
which is not great. Maybe simply create a keyrings-filesystem
package with this directory and have whoever installs keyrings
depend on it.
