Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to be able to sign git commits with SSH keys from gitui.

This is a new feature that seems to only work properly with OpenSSH 8.8 and above, which can make it challenging to test on more stable OSes; but if you are able to use it, it seems painless compared to GPG. Because it is new, it also has poor support on GitHub and other code forges, but I expect that will change.

It may also seem premature to consider, given that GPG signing isn't supported in gitui yet; on the other hand, now may be a good time to consider the user interface to make it easy to support signing with SSH keys as well as GPG keys in the future.
