Uwe formal notation for credential and subcredential
In particular, give these formal names which contain "hs" (since they
are part of the hidden service protocol, and not any other kind of
authentication or authorisation scheme), and "N" to indicate that they
are hash-generated nonces, not passwords.
Change the references in the formulae, which it really seems to me
ought to refer to the formal names.
