[PATCH] t7004: Skip tests for signed tags in an old version of gpg.

[PATCH] t7004: Skip tests for signed tags in an old version of gpg.

[Carlos Rica]

As said here: http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/faqs.html#q6.19
the gpg version 1.0.6 didn't parse trust packets correctly, so for
that version, creation of signed tags using the generated key fails.

This was already discussed in a previous message from Sven,
who runs that old version of gpg:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/51291

The page describing the bug was found by Johannes after some research:
