bug#60852: git-authenticate edge case for certain key setup.

[Hilton Chain]

I encountered the issue when adding a new key to my Guix channel.  Though I
haven't figured out what happened exactly, I'm currently able to reproduce the
issue with the following steps.

1. Generate two keypairs.  Key One with the preset "ECC and ECC", Key Two with
"ECC (set your own capabilities)" and only keep the Certify capability, then
add a Sign subkey to Key Two.  All Curve 25519.

2. Create a new git repository, commit public keys of the two to the "keyring"
branch.  Then commit file ".guix-authorizations" to the "main" branch with the
following code:
#+begin_src scheme
  (authorizations
   (version 0)
   (("21D3 9304 CED7 A5CF 50B6  0B80 676A 5238 1FFD 80C5"
     (name "Key One"))))
#+end_src

Configure git to sign commits with Key One, change the ".guix-authorizations"
file to the following and commit:
#+begin_src scheme
  (authorizations
   (version 0)
   (("21D3 9304 CED7 A5CF 50B6  0B80 676A 5238 1FFD 80C5"
     (name "Key One")))
   (("405C B557 DE1F 1254 B012  640A 3BE8 CD60 E408 A705"
     (name "Key Two"))))
#+end_src

Then change the signing key to Key Two and add a new commit.

Now there're three commits:

:
:     Authorize Key One.


3. Invoke `guix git authenticate`...with error.

#+begin_src shell
  guix git authenticate c9476062a2f341e9ee95a60d17cf2233b7c55ff4 "21D3 9304 
CED7 A5CF 50B6  0B80 676A 5238 1FFD 80C5"
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:

4. However, if I swap positions of the two fingerprints, it works.

New ".guix-authorizations" file:
#+begin_src scheme
  (authorizations
   (version 0)
   (("405C B557 DE1F 1254 B012  640A 3BE8 CD60 E408 A705"
     (name "Key Two")))
   (("21D3 9304 CED7 A5CF 50B6  0B80 676A 5238 1FFD 80C5"
     (name "Key One"))))
#+end_src

And a new `guix git authenticate` result:
