Update information about release signatures
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The industry is moving away from GPG signatures, and signing
distribution artifacts will complicate the release process and make it
harder to allow other maintainers to make releases for only minor gain
in auditability of releases.

At least for now, we'll remove any guarantees about signatures and trust
GitHub's authentication.

Note: This commit is signed with the same key that signed releases
2.4.1-2.8.2.

Starting with version 2.4.1, all source and binary distributions will be signed
by a PGP key that has, at the very least, been signed by the key which made the

New releases *may* have signed tags, but binary and source distributions
uploaded to PyPI will no longer have GPG signatures attached.
