How to use a PGP key directly for the Ref Arch instead of using Keybase?

A customer asked:

How can I provide a PGP key for use in my Reference Architecture deployment without creating a Keybase account?

To provide us a PGP key without using keybase, first export your PGP key:

# Set KEYID to the ID of the PGP key you would like to use for encrypting
gpg --export $KEYID | base64

Once you have exported your key using this command, you can paste in the full base64 encoded string instead of the keybase:username format in your reference-architecture-form.yml.
