impl: add support for disabling CLI signature verification (#564)
* impl: add new configurable option to disable CLI signature verification These options are configurable from the Settings page there is no available shortcut on the main plugin page to discourage the quick disable of CLI verification * impl: hide configurable fallback if signature verification is disabled The main plugin screen has a quick shortcut for setting whether the user wants to fallback on releases.coder.com for signatures if they are not provided by the main deployment. This checkbox should not be visible if the user wants to disable signature verification altogether. * impl: skip signature validation Signature validation is skipped if the user configured the `disableSignatureVerification` to true. * chore: update changelog * chore: next version is 2.22.1 * doc: developer facing documentation for CLI signature verification * chore: fix UTs

## GPG Signature Verification
20+
21+
The Coder Gateway plugin starting with version *2.22.0* implements a comprehensive GPG signature verification system to
22+
ensure the authenticity and integrity of downloaded Coder CLI binaries. This security feature helps protect users from
23+
running potentially malicious or tampered binaries.
24+
25+
### How It Works
26+
27+
1. **Binary Download**: When connecting to a Coder deployment, the plugin downloads the appropriate Coder CLI binary for
28+
the user's operating system and architecture from the deployment's `/bin/` endpoint.
29+
30+
2. **Signature Download**: After downloading the binary, the plugin attempts to download the corresponding `.asc`
31+
signature file from the same location. The signature file is named according to the binary (e.g.,
32+
`coder-linux-amd64.asc` for `coder-linux-amd64`).
33+
34+
3. **Fallback Signature Sources**: If the signature is not available from the deployment, the plugin can optionally fall
35+
back to downloading signatures from `releases.coder.com`. This is controlled by the `fallbackOnCoderForSignatures`
36+
setting.
37+
38+
4. **GPG Verification**: The plugin uses the BouncyCastle library shipped with Gateway app to verify the detached GPG
39+
signature against the downloaded binary using Coder's trusted public key.
40+
41+
5. **User Interaction**: If signature verification fails or signatures are unavailable, the plugin presents security
42+
warnings
43+
to users, allowing them to accept the risk and continue or abort the operation.
44+
45+
### Verification Process
46+
47+
The verification process involves several components:
48+
49+
- **`GPGVerifier`**: Handles the core GPG signature verification logic using BouncyCastle
50+
- **`VerificationResult`**: Represents the outcome of verification (Valid, Invalid, Failed, SignatureNotFound)
51+
- **`CoderDownloadService`**: Manages downloading both binaries and their signatures
52+
- **`CoderCLIManager`**: Orchestrates the download and verification workflow
53+
54+
### Configuration Options
55+
56+
Users can control signature verification behavior through plugin settings:
57+
58+
- **`disableSignatureVerification`**: When enabled, skips all signature verification. This is useful for clients running
59+
custom CLI builds, or
60+
customers with old deployment versions that don't have a signature published on `releases.coder.com`.
61+
- **`fallbackOnCoderForSignatures`**: When enabled, allows downloading signatures from `releases.coder.com` if not
62+
available from the deployment
63+
64+
### Security Considerations
65+
66+
- The plugin embeds Coder's trusted public key in the plugin resources
67+
- Verification uses detached signatures, which are more secure than attached signatures
68+
- Users are warned about security risks when verification fails
69+
- The system gracefully handles cases where signatures are unavailable
70+
- All verification failures are logged for debugging purposes
71+
72+
### Error Handling
73+
74+
The system handles various failure scenarios:
75+
76+
- **Missing signatures**: Prompts user to accept risk or abort
77+
- **Invalid signatures**: Warns user about potential tampering and prompts user to accept risk or abort
78+
- **Verification failures**: Prompts user to accept risk or abort
79+
80+
This signature verification system ensures that users can trust the Coder CLI binaries they download through the plugin,
81+
protecting against supply chain attacks and ensuring binary integrity.
