gpg: centralize signature check

verify-commit and verify-tag both share a central codepath for verifying
commits: check_signature.  However, verify-tag exited successfully for
untrusted signature, while verify-commit exited unsuccessfully.
Centralize this signature check and make verify-commit adopt the older
verify-tag behavior.  This behavior is more logical anyway, as the
signature is in fact valid, whether or not there's a path of trust to
the author.
