fast-import: add '--signed-commits=<mode>' option

A '--signed-commits=<mode>' option is already available when using
`git fast-export` to decide what should be done at export time about
commit signatures. At import time though, there is no option, or
other way, in `git fast-import` to decide about commit signatures.

To remediate that, let's add a '--signed-commits=<mode>' option to
`git fast-import` too.

For now the supported <mode>s are the same as those supported by
`git fast-export`.

The code responsible for consuming a signature is refactored into
the import_one_signature() and discard_one_signature() functions,
which makes it easier to follow the logic and add new modes in the
future.

In the 'strip' and 'warn-strip' modes, we deliberately use
discard_one_signature() to discard the signature without parsing it.
This ensures that even malformed signatures, which would cause the
parser to fail, can be successfully stripped from a commit.
