Update algorithms section to normatively depend on the INFRA specification about vc-data-model

[iherman]

To clarify: I did not "request". I raised the possibility to use infra as a tool to make the algorithm specification possibly cleaner. To be clear: I will not object if the final decision is not to use it.

[OR13]

The result of verifying a secured credential or presentation is an INFRA map expressing a conforming document.

Conforming document implies compact JSON-LD document implementing all normative statements associated with credentials or presentations.

I also won't object if the decision is to not use Infra, although I do think using it is a good idea.

I was worried about @OR13's suggestion to say that the documents themselves should be Infra maps, but then I noticed that the JSON-LD-API already expects Infra maps as input, so that should work fine.
