merge: extract verify_merge_signature() helper

The logic to implement "merge --verify-signatures" is inline in
cmd_merge(), but this site misses some cases. Let's extract the logic
into a function so we can call it from more places.

We'll move it to commit.[ch], since one of the callers (git-pull) is
outside our source file. This function isn't all that general (after
all, its main function is to exit the program) but it's not worth trying
to fix that. The heavy lifting is done by check_commit_signature(), and
our purpose here is just sharing the die() logic. We'll mark it with a
comment to make that clear.
