Bug Description

When testing things, I don't care that sstream-query verifies the signature, and often don't have the correct keyring to hand, need to look up the path, etc.

Please add an --allow-unauthenticated or similar option.

fwiw, you can basically just find a .json url (by default it uses v1/streams/index.sjson) . feed it the full url wit .json instead and it wont check.

ie:
sstream-query http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/
or
sstream-query http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/streams/v1/index.sjson

will need the key, but

sstream-query http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/streams/v1/index.json

does not.
