For instance, you might want to add some fields to signature_v2_hdr down the line. I think even after that change, it still remains "asymmetric signature" just that structure size changes and there is additional info. If there is versioning info assciated with signature type ASYMMETRIC, we could simple bump it to 1.1 or whatever and keep the version detail internal to ima/integrity subsystem.
