ecdsautils: verify: fix signature verification (CVE-2022-24884)

A vulnerability was found in ecdsautils which allows forgery of ECDSA
signatures. An adversary exploiting this vulnerability can create an update
manifest accepted by the autoupdater, which can be used to distribute
malicious firmware updates by spoofing a Gluon node's connection to the
update server.

+Subject: [PATCH] verify: fix signature verification (CVE-2022-24884)
+
+Verify that r and s are non-zero. Without these checks, an all-zero
+signature is always considered valid.
+
+While it would be nicer to error out in ecdsa_verify_prepare_legacy()
+already, that would require users of libecdsautil to check a return value
+of the prepare step. To be safe, implement the fix in an API/ABI-compatible
+way that doesn't need changes to the users.
