Simply pass options on to gpg the same way gpg uses them -- no looping
through and checking lots of signatures.
This prevents a situation where the signature file to be verified is
manipulated to contain an embedded signature which is valid, but not a
detached signature for the file you are actually trying to verify.
gpg does not offer an option to verify many files at once by naming each
signature/file pair, and there's no reason for us to do so either, since
it would be quite tiresome to do so.
In the event that there is no signature/file pair specified to
pacman-key itself,
- preserve gpg's behavior, *if* the matching file does not exist, by
- assuming the signature is an embedded signature
- deviate from gpg's behavior, by
- offering a security warning about which one is happening
- when there is an embedded signature *and* a matching detached file,
assume the latter is desired
