I was about to say that checking for those zeros seems more a matter of
implementing as the spec already requires it, BUT. I'm moderately surprised ..
scratch that, shocked that the padding between the signature and main header is
not even *mentioned* in the LSB
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/LSB_5.0.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/pkgformat.html
And what's not even mentioned is certainly not specified to be zeros. Ugh.
Teaches me not to assume... So yeah, you'll have an explicit requirement for
all padding to be zeros in v6. Thanks for th ereminder.
As for dribbles in signatures, I dunno. There's at least one potentially
use-case for that, namely the padding itself.
