MODSIGN: Provide Kconfig options
Provide kernel configuration options for module signing. The following configuration options are added: CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_SHA1 CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_SHA224 CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_SHA256 CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_SHA384 CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_SHA512 These select the cryptographic hash used to digest the data prior to signing. Additionally, the crypto module selected will be built into the kernel as it won't be possible to load it as a module without incurring a circular dependency when the kernel tries to check its signature.
