Change terminology to signing, verification keys

This is better (capability-based) terminology and matches the spec more closely.

I recently changed the terminology to "signing key" and "validating key" (in ZIPs, and it will also be in the next version of the protocol spec). That was primarily to distinguish between signature validation and proof verification. In any case I much prefer it to "public key" and "private key".
