There's no real point doing that:

+    if path.endswith('InRelease'):
+        data = os.fdopen(apt_pkg.open_maybe_clear_signed_file(path))
+    else:
+        data = open(path)

Just use the open_maybe_clear_signed_file path all the time, that's why
it's "maybe" after all.

+                for relfile in ['Release', 'InRelease']:

I'd prefer that the other way around.

Would be nice if you could send a git commit without the changelog entry
upstream, then we can apply it to the git repository. Best with a commit
message like this:

apt/utils.py: changes to parse InRelease files   [or better something
starting with a verb]
