 Currently when opening the following link in a browser, the signature will
 be displayed instead of downloaded:
 https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/3.6.5/torbrowser-install-3.6
 .5_en-US.exe.asc

 This can confuse users trying to verify the signature, because they will
 need the file saved on their disk with most tools. In order to save them a
 step, and some bewilderment, let's make .asc files be downloaded by
 browsers.

 I believe the Apache configuration snippet to be close to the following:

 {{{
 <FilesMatch "\.asc$">
   ForceType application/octet-stream
   Header set Content-Disposition attachment
 </FilesMatch>
 }}}
