[Enigmail] jsunit updates and distribution

Hi Patrick, and other enigmail folks--

I'm trying to sort out enigmail 2.1 for debian with tbird 68.

i note that to properly test the new enigmail, i need a newer version of
jsunit for the testing, so i'd like to ship that in debian too.  at
https://www.enigmail.net/jsunit/ i see that jsunit 0.2.2 is available.

i notice a few things that seem amiss with jsunit distribution.  I've
ordered them from highest priority to lowest priority as i see it -- but
if you can fix any of them, that would be great:

 * The git repo at https://git.code.sf.net/u/pbrunschwig/jsunit/source
   has no tags for anything after jsunit-0.2.0, even though
   https://www.enigmail.net/jsunit/ lists 0.2.1 and 0.2.2.

 * The git tags that i do see don't appear to be signed.  Please sign
   any new tags you create!

 * The git repo at https://git.code.sf.net/u/pbrunschwig/jsunit/source
   has an erroneous tag jsunit-1.1.2 -- maybe you want to clean that up
   with something like (untested, i know this syntax works with
   branches, but i don't know about tags):

       git push origin :jsunit-1.1.2

 * The "file not found" situation below https://www.enigmail.net/jsunit/
   is weird.  Rather than giving a 404 return code, a request for a
   missing URL gives a series of HTTP redirections which culminate in an
   HTTP 200 at https://www.enigmail.net/index.php/en/error-404 (that
   page *says* "Error 404 - Page not Found" in the text, but it's
   actually an HTTP 200 OK response!).

   This confuses debian's automatic upstream retrieval scripts ("uscan")
   when they hunt around for trial signatures.  In particular, uscan
   tests the URL at https://www.enigmail.net/jsunit/jsunit-0.2.2.xpi.asc
   and then thinks that maybe a signature is available, because it
   follows the chain of redirects.

   The easiest way to avoid confusing uscan in the short term is just to
   ship .asc OpenPGP signatures alongside the .xpi bundles.  but fixing
   the overall 404 handler would probably be a good thing at some point
   too.

Thanks for your work on enigmail!
