fast-export, fast-import: add support for signed-commits

fast-export has a --signed-tags= option that controls how to handle tag
signatures.  However, there is no equivalent for commit signatures; it
just silently strips the signature out of the commit (analogously to
--signed-tags=strip).

While signatures are generally problematic for fast-export/fast-import
(because hashes are likely to change), if they're going to support tag
signatures, there's no reason to not also support commit signatures.

So, implement a --signed-commits= option that mirrors the --signed-tags=
option.

On the fast-export side, try to be as much like signed-tags as possible,
in both implementation and in user-interface.  This will change the
default behavior to '--signed-commits=abort' from what is now
'--signed-commits=strip'.  In order to provide an escape hatch for users
of third-party tools that call fast-export and do not yet know of the
--signed-commits= option, add an environment variable
'FAST_EXPORT_SIGNED_COMMITS_NOABORT=1' that changes the default to
'--signed-commits=warn-strip'.
