After some research[3], I've decided to add any keys used to sign
InRelease file to the git repository used to build the images.
Saves me from having to checksum in the scripts as well ;-)

I've created a PR[4] and GitLab CI/CD results should be in some time
tomorrow. I still need/want to refactor some of the mucking around with
temporarily installing curl but that for after those results are in.

BTW, I noticed a devuan-keyring-freia-archive.gpg in 2023.07.01 of the
devuan-keyring package. If Freia has been decided upon than it should
probably be mentioned as having been chosen on

https://beta.devuan.org/os/releases

Hope this helps,
