From: Luca Boccassi <bluca@debian.org>

Add a new configuration CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG_PLATFORM_KEYRING
that enables verifying dm-verity signatures using the platform keyring,
which is populated using the UEFI DB certificates.

This is useful for self-enrolled systems that do not use MOK, as the
secondary keyring which is already used for verification, if the
relevant kconfig is enabled, is linked to the machine keyring, which
gets its certificates loaded from MOK. On some datacenter/virtual/cloud
deployments that roll their own OS it can happen to deploy one's own
certificate chain directly in DB on first boot in unattended mode,
rather than relying on MOK, as the latter typically requires
interactive authentication to enroll. Another use case is for those who
self-enroll on their laptop/desktop, and do not use shim/mok at all.
This is quite common, for example it's the main way Arch users do
SecureBoot, and there's an entire ecosystem around this workflow, using
sbctl and friends. systemd-boot provides facilities to self-enroll on
first boot, for example. Another use case is in CIs, where we boot with
a locally built systemd-boot, self-enroll in EDK2, run some tests, and
then throw away the VM. This is the case in systemd's upstream CI that
uses mkosi, for example.

Default to the same value as DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG_SECONDARY_KEYRING
if not otherwise specified, as it is likely that if one wants to use
MOK certificates to verify dm-verity volumes, DB certificates are going
to be used too. Those who do not wish for the DB certificates to make
their way in the kernel keyrings can already set the MokIgnoreDB UEFI
variable, and importing will be skipped. This changes fully respects
that workflow, as it just uses the platform keyring if it is populated,
and changes nothing otherwise.
