commit 194c25d59fb42ef653d3bc94c97966926dc84800

    doc: Improve documentation about VALIDSIG
    
    --
    
    The claim that VALIDSIG is the same as GOODSIG is simply wrong.
    Attempt to clarify it.  Also, the paragraph about primary-key-fpr and
    sig-version was weirdly re-ordered during the org-mode conversion in
    65eb98966a569a91c97d0c23ba5582a9a7558de0; repair it.
