Messages 5.1. Authorization Request Verification - typo, old reference to JWT

Issue #659 resolved
Vladimir Dzhuvinov created an issue

I discovered a typo in the first sentence - encryption should actually be decryption: * "(1) encryption and signature validation of the value of request or the content of request_uri"*

Also, the old request object JWT format is still there:

"the Request Object MUST verify as JWS [JWS] or JWE [JWE] objects that are encoded in the JWT"

    Concrete suggestion to rewrite the paragraph, with a numbered list to improve readability of the two steps:

    Authorization Request Verification consists of two main steps:

    1. If an OpenID Request Object was sent in the "request" parameter or by reference in the "request_uri" parameter, the Request Object MUST be decrypted as JWE object and/or validated as JWS object.

    2. The Authorization Request parameters MUST be verified.
