Currently if set_module_sig_enforced is called with CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=n
e.g. [1], it can lead to a linking error,

    ld: security/integrity/ima/ima_appraise.o: in function `ima_appraise_measurement':
    security/integrity/ima/ima_appraise.c:587:(.text+0xbbb): undefined reference to `set_module_sig_enforced'

This happens because the actual implementation of
set_module_sig_enforced comes from CONFIG_MODULE_SIG but both the
function declaration and the empty stub definition are tied to
CONFIG_MODULES.

So bind set_module_sig_enforced to CONFIG_MODULE_SIG instead. This
allows (future) users to call set_module_sig_enforced directly without
the "if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG)" safeguard.

Note this issue hasn't caused a real problem because all current callers
of set_module_sig_enforced e.g. security/integrity/ima/ima_efi.c
use "if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG)" safeguard.
