[PATCH v5 1/6] builtin/verify-tag.c: Ignore SIGPIPE on gpg-interface

From: Santiago Torres <santiago@nyu.edu>

The verify_signed_buffer comand might cause a SIGPIPE signal when the gpg child process terminates early (due to a bad keyid, for example) and git tries to write to it afterwards. Previously, ignoring SIGPIPE was done on the builtin/verify-tag.c command to avoid this issue. However, any other caller who wanted to use the verify_signed_buffer command would have to include this signal call.

Instead, we use sigchain_push(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN) on the verify_signed_buffer call (pretty much like in sign_buffer()) so that any caller is not required to perform this task. This will avoid possible mistakes by further developers using verify_signed_buffer.
