there is already an authentication, but it's a "static" one. on biblibre
sandboxes, it's my login that is used.

That's different from the author of the signoff, that an easy git config
... can change on the fly.

What would be pretty easy to do would be:
* have a signoff.pl page (like sandbox.pl)
* the user enter his mail, name, bug number
* the script does "git config $name / $mail" + git bz attach $bugnumber
* the user goes to bugzilla, obsolete manually the bug and change the
status to "signed-off" (we even could easily redirect to the bugzilla
page). The requirement would be to have the user having a bugzilla
account. That would also mean the signed-off patch would look as if
uploaded by me (for BibLibre sandboxes), but that's not a problem. We
even could create a "fake sandbox" account if we want.
