We usually just forward the --verify-signatures option along to
git-merge, and trust it to do the right thing. However, when we are on
an unborn branch (i.e., there is no HEAD yet), we handle this case
ourselves without even calling git-merge. And in this code path, we do
not respect the verification option at all.
It may be more maintainable in the long run to call git-merge for the
unborn case. That would fix this bug, as well as prevent similar ones in
the future. But unfortunately it's not easy to do. As t5520.3
demonstrates, there are some special cases that git-merge does not
handle, like "git pull .. master:master" (by the time git-merge is
invoked, we've overwritten the unborn HEAD).
So for now let's just teach git-pull to handle this feature.

A couple of test scripts create forged GPG signed commits or tags to
check that such forgery can't fool various git commands' signature
verification. All but one of those test scripts are prone to
occasional failures because the forgery creates a bogus GPG signature,
and git commands error out with an unexpected error message, e.g.
"Commit deadbeef does not have a GPG signature" instead of "... has a
bad GPG signature".
't5573-pull-verify-signatures.sh', 't7510-signed-commit.sh' and
't7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh' create forged signed commits like
this:
git commit -S -m "bad on side" &&
git cat-file commit side-bad >raw &&
sed -e "s/bad/forged bad/" raw >forged &&
git hash-object -w -t commit forged >forged.commit
On rare occasions the given pattern occurs not only in the commit
message but in the GPG signature as well, and after it's replaced in
the signature the resulting signature becomes invalid, GPG will report
CRC error and that it couldn't find any signature, which will then
ultimately cause the test failure.
Since in all three cases the pattern to be replaced during the forgery
is the first word of the commit message's subject line, and since the
GPG signature in the commit object is indented by a space, let's just
anchor those patterns to the beginning of the line to prevent this
issue.
The test script 't7030-verify-tag.sh' creates a forged signed tag
object in a similar way by replacing the pattern "seventh", but the
GPG signature in tag objects is not indented by a space, so the above
solution is not applicable in this case. However, in the tag object
in question the pattern "seventh" occurs not only in the tag message
but in the 'tag' header as well. To create a forged tag object it's
sufficient to replace only one of the two occurences, so modify the
sed script to limit the pattern to the 'tag' header (i.e. a line
beginning with "tag ", which, because of the space character, can
never occur in the base64-encoded GPG signature).
Note that the forgery in 't7004-tag.sh' is not affected by this issue:
while 't7004' does create a forged signed tag kind of the same way,
it replaces "signed-tag" in the tag object, which, because of the '-'
character, can never occur in the base64-encoded GPG signarute.

The previous steps added test_when_finished to tests that run 'git
pull' or 'git merge' with expectation of success, so that the test
after them can start from a known state even when their 'git pull'
invocation unexpectedly fails. However, tests that run 'git pull'
or 'git merge' expecting it not to succeed forgot to protect later
tests the same way---if they unexpectedly succeed, the test after
them would start from an unexpected state.
Reset and checkout the initial commit after all these tests, whether
they expect their invocations to succeed or fail.

Add tests for pull --verify-signatures with untrusted, bad and no
signatures. Previously the only test for --verify-signatures was to
make sure that pull --rebase --verify-signatures result in a warning
(t5520-pull.sh).
