Parents (ingredients) intake to sign from pre-existing Manifests #12
Description
Can we add functionality to the sign_file sdk to extend a pre-existing Manifest incorporating it as a parent.
Original
result = c2pa.sign_file("path/to/source.jpg", "path/to/dest.jpg", manifest_json, sign_info, data_dir)
Proposed
result = c2pa.sign_file("path/to/source.jpg", "path/to/dest.jpg", manifest_json, sign_info, data_dir, ingredients=[Manifests])
This way we can include the parents that formed the child asset

The CLI aligns with this feature partially allowing one parent https://github.com/contentauth/c2patool?tab=readme-ov-file#usage

The new Builder API allows adding as many ingredients as you like:

I'll be working on more convenience features, such as a simpler.

There can only be one parent ingredient, so there must be some way to indicate that.

I am closing this issue because the v2 spec enforces that there is only one parent ingredient.
And the add_ingredient API on the Builder let you add as many ingredients as you want.
I'd suggest updating to latest released version and investigating if the requested behavior can be achieved there (with the caveat mentioned above about having only one parent ingredient).
