  sm/sign.c, tools/gpgconf-comp.c, tools/gpgtar.h: replace "Allow to"
  with clearer text.

In standard English, the normal construction is "${XXX} allows ${YYY}
to" -- that is, the subject (${XXX}) of the sentence is allowing the
object (${YYY}) to do something.  When the object is missing, the
phrasing sounds awkward, even if the object is implied by context.
There's almost always a better construction that isn't as awkward.

These changes should make the language a bit clearer.
