Jim, in the situation where a COSE/CBOR voucher has been signed by a Raw
Public Key (whether ECDSA or EdDSA), and the signing (public) key needs to be
transfered, would you recommend:

1) use RFC8152, section 7.1 to describe the key.
   Same as you use in your Examples git tree.
   What MIME-TYPE would you use to transfer such a thing?

2) use (Subject-)Public-Key-Info encoded
   as specified in RFC7250, section 3.
   What MIME-TYPE would you use to transfer such a thing?
