Subject: [ietf-dkim] ISSUE: verifier message editing language

Per Murray's request, here's just the changes to take out the verifier
message editing
[...]

The stuff having to do with producing an alternate version of the text is 
certainly wrong insofar as there's no extra visible copy produced, but I've 
always interpreted that language as referring to the "internal" copy that gets 
fed to the hash function.  It certainly could be that I've just been around the 
text and the algorithms long enough to believe that must be what the current 
text means so I didn't think twice about it.

Anyway, I didn't omit this point intentionally last time.  It's a reasonable 
thing to clean up.
