Leftover /tmp/apt-key.* files after updates with embedded gpg keys in

Bug description:
[Impact]
When keys are embedded into deb822 sources files as Signed-By, apt writes
them to a temporary file, but the code to delete them accidentally had an if
(0) in front of the deletion, so they don't get deleted and accumulate with
each `apt update` run.
[Test plan]
Including a test case for this in our comprehensive integration test suite
which runs as autopkgtest, so passing autopkgtest = good.
[Where problems could occur]
Files could end up being removed too soon if the code is otherwise wrong?
