add AllowedSigningKeys metadata for enforcing APK signatures

When making automated binary repositories with fdroid update, it is generally easy to find out the expected signing key for the APKs that are gathered. AllowedSigningKeys lets the repo operator set the expected signing keys, then fdroid update will check that the APKs are signed by one of those keys. If not, the mismatched APKs will not be included in the repo. If fdroid update --delete-unknown is specified, the mismatched APKs will be deleted. Then an automated process can be used to download newer APKs to the repo, and they will only be included if they have a known good signature.
