Subject: [PATCH v3 5/7] integrity: Select CONFIG_KEYS instead of depending on it

This avoids a dependency cycle in CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE_MODSIG (introduced by
a later patch in this series): it will select CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORMAT
which in turn selects CONFIG_KEYS. Kconfig then complains that
CONFIG_INTEGRITY_SIGNATURE depends on CONFIG_KEYS.
