Detailed Description

An abstract base class for asynchronous signing.

To use a SignJob, first obtain an instance from the CryptoBackend implementation, connect the progress() and result() signals to suitable slots and then start the signing with a call to start(). This call might fail, in which case the SignJob instance will have scheduled it's own destruction with a call to QObject::deleteLater().

After result() is emitted, the SignJob will schedule it's own destruction by calling QObject::deleteLater().
