What this PR changes/adds
Separates the cryptographic verification of VPs and VCs and the subsequent checking of several rules into a lower level aggregate service called
VerifiableCredentialValidationService
.This reduces the number of collaborators needed by the
IdentityAndTrustService
and keeps concerns neatly confined.Why it does that
The main reason for this is that this new service can then be used independently from IATP, e.g. for stand-alone validation of a VP.
Further notes
List other areas of code that have changed but are not necessarily linked to the main feature. This could be method
signature changes, package declarations, bugs that were encountered and were fixed inline, etc.
