Summary0003639: REST API sometimes sends signatures as json objects, sometimes just plain
DescriptionWe seem to have signatures sometimes together with their purpose and purpose-size in a JSON object, and sometimes just plain as the (crockford-encoded) binary blob.

As a result, the logic in the code is sometimes inconsistent, doing it one way or the other. Also, it would seem that transmitting purpose and size is, strictly speaking, redundant as we know from the context what those are.

We should for sure make sure we only use one approach for sending/receiving signatures, and maybe use one that is the least redundant?

Checked the code, all responses generated right now in taler-mint-httpd_responses.c are consistent in this.
