[PATCH] crypto: verify_pefile - Use constant-time digest comparison

The PE file digest comparison in verify_pefile_signature() uses
memcmp(), whose execution time depends on the position of the first
mismatched byte. This creates a timing side-channel that could allow
an attacker to forge PE file signatures byte by byte.

Replace memcmp() with crypto_memneq() to perform a constant-time
comparison, consistent with the rest of the crypto subsystem
(gcm, ccm, chacha20poly1305, rsassa-pkcs1, krb5, etc.). Add an
explicit <crypto/utils.h> include since this file did not previously
pull in the crypto_memneq() declaration.
