TSIG: fix possible weakness in signature checking

Use binary comparison instead of string comparison for the received MAC.

The transaction signature was checked only partially, if the MAC
contained a zero byte. If this was the very first byte of the signature,
the checking didn't happen at all. In addition, possible ASCII
characters in the MAC were compared case insensitively.
