Release 3.5.0

**Fixes**
 * Fix calculation of JWK thumbprints according to [RFC7638](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7638.html)

**Changes**
* Add `provider` module that actually implements cryptography! (Currently in preview, signature verification only)
* Add `COSE_Key` header to `CoseHeader`, defined in OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance draft 13
* Fix serialization of COSE signature structures
* Refactor `JsonWebKey`:
    * Remove `identifier`, please use `keyId` or `jwkThumbprint` directly
    * Add `equalsCryptographically()` to compare two keys by their cryptographic properties only
* Externalise multibase implementation

+* Multiplatform signature verification **only** based on platform verifiers (and a fallback 100% KMP verifier) ist included as a prerelease. signature creation is on its way.
 * While the ASN.1 parser will happily parse any valid **DER-encoded** ASN.1 structure you throw at it and the encoder will
   write it back correctly too. (No, we don't care for BER, since we want to transport cryptographic material!)
