Disclaimer: this is the work of @necauqua and @julienvincent (see
martinvonz#3141). I simply materialized the changes by rebasing them on latest
`main` and making the necessary adjustments to pass CI.

I had to fix an issue in `TestSignatureBackend::sign()`.
The following test was failing:

```
Print debugging revealed that the signature was bad, because of a
missing trailing `\n` in `TestSignatureBackend::sign()`.

I still have no idea, where in the call chain that trailing `\n` is
added to `signature`. I tried to retrace `signature`'s steps. However,
it seemed to be returned from `TestSignatureBackend::sign()`, which was
even more mind-boggling to me since `sig` is also returned from
`TestSignatureBackend::sign()`. How can they be different?
