[PATCH] Documentation: clarify signature verification

[Fox in the shell <KellerFuchs@hashbang.sh>]

From: Keller Fuchs <kellerfuchs@hashbang.sh>

Uniformise the vocabulary used wrt. key/signature validity with OpenPGP:
- a signature is valid if made by a key with a valid uid;
- in the default trust-model, a uid is valid if signed by a trusted key;
- a key is trusted if the (local) user set a trust level for it.
