45842c3d2 Improve documentation for running verify-commits.py script (Jameson Lopp)
Pull request description:
I ran into 3 different issues while trying to run the verify-commits script for the first time and I think documenting them would help save time for future developers.
1. I was trying to just run it with "python" and didn't realize I had multiple python versions installed and this script is only syntactically valid for python 3.x.
2. I needed to import the trusted keys
3. The script was hanging because it was triggering my yubikey for signature verification

~~Make sure `LC_ALL=C` is set when using `grep` range expressions.~~
Make sure `LC_ALL=C` is set in all shell scripts.
From the `grep(1)` documentation:
> Within a bracket expression, a range expression consists of two characters separated by a hyphen. It matches any single character that sorts between the two characters, inclusive, using the locale's collating sequence and character set. For example, in the default C locale, `[a-d]` is equivalent to `[abcd]`. Many locales sort characters in dictionary order, and in these locales `[a-d]` is typically not equivalent to `[abcd]`; it might be equivalent to `[aBbCcDd]`, for example. To obtain the traditional interpretation of bracket expressions, you can use the C locale by setting the `LC_ALL` environment variable to the value C.

577f111 Make verify-commits.sh test that merges are clean (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Unsure if we want this.
This modifies verify-commits.sh to redo all merges along the leftmost commit branch (which includes all PR merges), and verify whether they match the merge commit's trees.
The benefit is that it will detect a case where one of the maintainers merges a PR, but makes an unrelated change inside the merge commit. This on itself is not very strong, as unrelated changes can also be included in the merged branch itself - but perhaps the merge commit is not something that people are otherwise likely to look at.
Fixes#8089

This reverts commit 7deba93bdc.
This is neither a "test" change, nor should the trusted-git-root
have been updated - there is a process for expired PGP keys.

Specifically, require that the left branch (first restult of git
show -s --format=format:%P) is a signed merge commit, instead of
allowing either. This is fine for now, but might need to be relaxed
in the future.
Also fixes an out-of-file-descriptors issue by holding too many
open FDs writing to /dev/null
Now that the trusted root is past all commits signed by that key we don't need
it in the trusted-keys list, nor do we need to whitelist those commits in
allow-revsig-commits
Any attacker who managed to make an evil commit that changed something in the
contrib/verify-commits/ directory could just as easily remove the warning
and/or modify it to not display the evil commits; telling the user to check
those commits specifically misleads them into checking just those commits
rather than the script itself.
