Validate key 0xDDDAFA7674E54418 for org.testng

Description

The key used to sign testNG changed for release 7.5

The testNG update got committed accidentally to the parent pom prior to validating the key and unpicking the change is difficult at this stage,

Before we ship 11.3.0 of the parent pom this key needs to be “validated”.

We are developing the process on the fly but what has been done so far is

  1. Check for the key on a website or in the usual places (on a website or in the SCM)

  2. Contact the owner by email

  3. Discuss among the committers prior to doing something else of a leap of faith TOFU.
