Rebased on #1528This is stage 2 of the signature message truncation fix plan outlined in #1526.
In these commits, client begins signing the hashed messages, but continues to recognize the buggy signatures from the server. This is because the while the server understands the correct hashed message signatures as of stage 1, it is still sending the old signatures with its messages.
This work can be backported to a 0.4.3+ release if #1528 has been deployed with 0.4.2.
In the next stage, the server begins sending the correct signatures.
