[PATCH 1/2] digsig: remove unnecessary memory allocation and copying

[Dmitry Kasatkin <dmitry.kasatkin@xxxxxxxxx>]

In existing use case, copying of the decoded data is unnecessary in
pkcs_1_v1_5_decode_emsa. It is just enough to get pointer to the message.
Removing copying and extra buffer allocation.
