[U-Boot] [PATCH] common, image-sig: [BUG?] if no valid signature node found, do not boot signed FIT image

fit_image_verify_required_sigs() must return != 0, on error.

When fit_image_verify_required_sigs() does not find a signature
node, it returns 0, which leads in booting a signed FIT image.

Fix this!

Found on an imx28 based board, with key dtb appended to u-boot.bin.

Booting signed FIT image without an valid key dtb appended to u-boot.bin

And linux boots ... which is bad, as we have no valid key appended
to u-boot.bin ...

With this patch it shows:
