In testing dkim-milter-2.8.3 with the domainkeys library added, I noticed that with a message signed by both methods, I get two
`Authentication-Results' headers in the incoming e-mail message, like this:

Authentication-Results: setup01.cc.umanitoba.ca; domainkeys=pass (testing) header.from=sa-test@sendmail.net
Authentication-Results: setup01.cc.umanitoba.ca; dkim=pass (1024-bit key)
header.i=@sendmail.net; x-dkim-adsp=none

The trouble with this is that I'm using DCC to generate checksums for that header and feed them into the database
for whitelisting. DCC can only handle one `Authentication-Results' header, so this isn't going to work. Can we
establish a precedence of signing techniques so that dkim-milter only produces one such header? I suppose it
would have to pick the strongest one that passes validation.
