[pmg-devel] [PATCH pmg-api v3] fix-2971: DKIM: Add setting to use From header when signing

[Maximiliano Sandoval <m.sandoval@proxmox.com>]

We add an option to use the address from the `From:` header instead of
the Envelope From address. Following RFC 5322 [2], we use the `Sender:`
header when there are multiple addresses in the `From:` header.

From RFC 7489 [1]:

   To illustrate, in relaxed mode, if a validated DKIM signature
   successfully verifies with a "d=" domain of "example.com", and the
   RFC5322.From address is "alerts@news.example.com", the DKIM "d="
   domain and the RFC5322.From domain are considered to be "in
   alignment".  In strict mode, this test would fail, since the "d="
   domain does not exactly match the FQDN of the address.

Current Problems:

 - `dkim_sign_rfc5322` is probably not a descriptive name for the setting
 - The setting description might be improved upon

Tested with the following command:

    swaks --from foo@bar1 --to EMAIL -s PMG_ADDR:26 --data "Date: %DATE%\nTo: %TO_ADDRESS%\nFrom: foo@bar2\nSubject: test %DATE%\nMessage-Id: <%MESSAGEID%>\nX-Mailer: swaks v%SWAKS_VERSION% jetmore.org/john/code/swaks/\n%NEW_HEADERS%\n%BODY%\n"

[2] https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5322#section-3.6.2

Differences from v2:
  - Rename setting to dkim_prefer_rfc5322_domain
  - Move parsing code inside of PMG::DKIMSign::signing_domain
  - Use Email::Address::XS to handle header parsing more gracefully
  - Improved commit message

I'll send a patch to pmg-docs once this is in 👌.
