SimpleEnvelope._DEFAULT_PAYLOAD_TYPE should be public?

ngclient accesses SimpleEnvelope._DEFAULT_PAYLOAD_TYPE.

flake8-self linter complains about this, I think correctly. If we use the value from a different module, it should be public

I suppose I didn't see a reason to expose it to every user of the API. But flake8 is right, that ngclient is also just a user of that API. I'm with with making the variable public.

Hi, I would like to work on it. I will create PR.
Thank you 👍
