Encoding the DID update document - why JSON #11

@AngusP

Description

@AngusP

Even though the main DID spec 'expects' JSON, you are already implicitly constructing that document for single-key OP_RETURN DIDs (as do other specs like did:key); so you could use CBOR or bencode or some other more space-efficient (and ∴ cheaper) encoding than "just" ASCII JSON in an inscription/envelope?

Perhaps the spec should also specify UTF-8 encoding even though that's what everyone would guess
