C2paSigningAlg cannot be passed to C2paSignerInfo

[djfletcher]

The library provides a C2paSigningAlg enum which presumably should be passed as the alg parameter to the C2paSignerInfo object. However, it raises an exception when I do that:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/daniel/dev/c2pa-python/examples/sign.py", line 47, in <module>
    signer = c2pa.Signer.from_info(signer_info)
  File "/Users/daniel/dev/c2pa-python/venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/c2pa/c2pa.py", line 1332, in from_info
    raise C2paError(error)
c2pa.c2pa.C2paError: NullParameter: signer_info.alg

This is the minimum diff to reproduce the error in examples/sign.py:

You can still use the "old" way of passing the algorithm value, while I look at this specifically:

signer_info = C2paSignerInfo(
  alg=b"es256",
  sign_cert=certs,
  private_key=key,
  ta_url=b"http://timestamp.digicert.com"
)

(That is taken directly from the tests, so should work :) ).
