gpg: close stderr once finished with it in verify_signed_buffer()

Failing to close the stderr pipe in verify_signed_buffer() causes
git to run out of file descriptors if there are many calls to
verify_signed_buffer(). An easy way to trigger this is to run

 git log --show-signature --merges | grep "key"

on the linux kernel git repo. Eventually it will fail with

 error: cannot create pipe for gpg: Too many open files
 error: could not run gpg.

Close the stderr pipe so that this can't happen.
