    modsign: Use if_changed rule for extracting cert from module signing key · 62172c81

    We couldn't use if_changed for this before, because it didn't live in
    the kernel/ directory so we couldn't add it to $(targets). It was easier
    just to leave it as it was.
    
    Now it's in the certs/ directory we can use if_changed, the same as we
    do for the trusted certificate list.
    
    Aside from making things consistent, this means we don't need to depend
    explicitly on the include/config/module/sig/key.h file. And we also get
    to automatically do the right thing and re-extract the cert if the user
    does odd things like using a relative filename and then playing silly
    buggers with adding/removing that file in both the source and object
    trees. We always favour the one in the object tree if it exists, and
    now we'll correctly re-extract the cert when it changes. Previously we'd
    *only* re-extract the cert if the config option changed, even if the
    actual file we're using did change.
