Metadata API: Remove Signed.bump_version() method

Remove `bump_version()` method, which is just an alias for "+= 1"
on the version attribute. For a slim low-level API it seems okay to
just directly access/modify the attribute.

The extra level of abstraction of "bumping a version" is more
appropriate for a repository library (see #1136).

This patch also removes a related unit test and updates another one
to directly do `(...).version +=`.
