public_key: Reject bad signatures as early as possible
Erlang bitstring type only uses as many bits as required, and does not use padding to create complete bytes as ASN1 compact_bitstring did. crypto:verify/5 will now fail, for some incorrect signatures as it expects complete bytes which an incorrect signature may not have. Instead of catching the failing crypto function and then returning false we check the input and reject it right away.
