notary: fix build
The package is broken on master for some time now:
https://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/trunk-combined/nixpkgs.notary.x86_64-linux/all

The main reason for the breackage is that the `Makefile` script attempts
to retrieve the latest git commit by using `git rev-parse` which breaks
as `git` is not in the build environment. This could be fixed by using
`?=` rather than `:=` for the `GITCOMMIT` variable in the `make` script
to easily override `GITCOMMIT` in the `buildPhase`.

See the Hydra logs for reference:
https://nix-cache.s3.amazonaws.com/log/ib4qp8h4r8d830ra4fah38l7ybb82gp7-notary-0.6.0.drv

Furthermore some refactoring was applied:

* Activated the test suite for `cmd/notary` to confirm the basic
  functionality when building for NixOS.

* Added {pre,post} hooks for `{build,install}Phase`

* Added myself as maintainer to have more people available in case of
  further breakage.

longDescription = ''
The Notary project comprises a server and a client for running and
interacting with trusted collections. See the service architecture
documentation for more information.
Notary aims to make the internet more secure by making it easy for people
to publish and verify content. We often rely on TLS to secure our
communications with a web server which is inherently flawed, as any
compromise of the server enables malicious content to be substituted for
the legitimate content.
With Notary, publishers can sign their content offline using keys kept
highly secure. Once the publisher is ready to make the content available,
they can push their signed trusted collection to a Notary Server.
Consumers, having acquired the publisher's public key through a secure
channel, can then communicate with any notary server or (insecure) mirror,
relying only on the publisher's key to determine the validity and
integrity of the received content.
