tag: fix sign_buffer() call to create a signed tag

The command "git tag -s" internally calls sign_buffer() to make a
cryptographic signature using the chosen backend like GPG and SSH.
The internal helper functions used by "git tag" implementation seem
to use a "negative return values are errors, zero or positive return
values are not" convention, and there are places (e.g., verify_tag()
that calls gpg_verify_tag()) that these internal helper functions
translate return values that signal errors to conform to this
convention, but do_sign() that calls sign_buffer() forgets to do so.

Fix it, so that a failed call to sign_buffer() that can return the
exit status from pipe_command() will not be overlooked.
