You should not add MYMETA.yml to the MANIFEST, it will NEVER ship to CPAN.

Remove the signature test.

If a 3rd party has hijacked the tarball they can simply change the signature test to always pass. In short, you're trusting the untrusted code to do a self-diagnostic and tell you if you can trust it. Your CPAN shell will already do a signature check.
