CodeEngine to work with Signed images

Today, CodeEngine works with "un-signed" images. It would be very helpful if Code Engine could understand signed images and be able to work with it by verifying.

For now, we can consider "skopeo" as a signing utility. Users could provide the public key which is then used to verify the signature in the CodeEngine construct.

    Both Container Registry and Code Engine are services available from the IBM Cloud Catalog. They should work seamlessly together including code signing to increase trust in the services deployed on IBM Cloud. Sadly, Code Engine does not seem to validate image signatures at this time. Voting +1 to have this feature added in the near future to Code Engine capabilities.
