checkpatch: Treat duplicate signatures as a different error class

Browse source 
If code is merged upstream first it is possible that the same author
may end up attempting to merge the same code into a downstream kernel.
Since code coming from upstream is always a backport and may involve
modifications it is appropriate for the author to add another
Signed-off-by line to the bottom of the commit log but this will
cause checkpatch to complain about duplicate signatures.  By making
the duplicate signature warning a different error class
(DUPLICATE_SIGN_OFF instead of BAD_SIGN_OFF) this will let us ignore
this error with --ignore DUPLICATE_SIGN_OFF without losing the benefits
of the other signature checks.
