receive-pack: GPG-validate push certificates

Reusing the GPG signature check helpers we already have, verify
the signature in receive-pack and give the results to the hooks
via GIT_PUSH_CERT_{SIGNER,KEY,STATUS} environment variables.

Policy decisions, such as accepting or rejecting a good signature by
a key that is not fully trusted, is left to the hook and kept
outside of the core.
