sign-file: Fix incorrect return values check
    
There are some wrong return values check in sign-file when call OpenSSL
API. The ERR() check cond is wrong because of the program only check the
return value is < 0 which ignored the return val is 0. For example:
1. CMS_final() return 1 for success or 0 for failure.
2. i2d_CMS_bio_stream() returns 1 for success or 0 for failure.
3. i2d_TYPEbio() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
4. BIO_free() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
