PackagesOrigin metadata should account for the fact that a vendor may have more than one possible signing key #2

Description

@dralley

An organization could may choose to rotate or replace their signing key, and it may be done gradually (without resigning all packages immediately) during which there could be a window in which some packages may be signed by one key and other packages may be signed by another (or both, as RPM packages can include more than one signature)

I don't know whether this is actually enforced, but it's best not to encode the assumption that all packages would match a singular declared key at all times - might be better to declare a list of acceptable keys for an origin.
