  • allows for up to 6 different levels of verification
  • adds --verify-upstream option to add, pull, update, and install
  • add PINTO_GNUPGHOME for using dedicated keyring
  • fix Tester.pm so test_name is propagated

Currently --verify-upstream=2 should Do The Right Thing for CPAN users. We may want to make that the default.
The other levels exist for special cases and the ultra paranoid.

Sorry for the delay. I've been preoccupied with Perl::Critic.

I will merge some of these PRs over the weekend.

Thanks for your patience.

Awesome. I've been using the merged bits for a couple of weeks and it all seems to be working okay. Managed to use it to get a major project over a severe stumbling block -- incredibly grateful to Pinto and yourself for that. Let me know it you have any questions.
