combo-layer: make Signed-off-by optional

It depends on the diligence of the person running the combo-layer tool
whether the Signed-off-by line added to each commit actually indicates
that the person was involved in validating the change.

When the import is purely automatic, it is better to not add the line,
because the history is more useful without it (searching for the person
really only lists changes he or she was involved with) and it would
be a false statement.

The 'signoff' property can be set per repository, like every
other property. But setting it in the special [DEFAULT] section
is more useful, so that is what the example shows.
