api!: remove verification methods from the FFI and JSON-RPC APIs

Core no longer tracks verification, so the API has nothing left
to report and UIs should drop their checkmark and "Introduced by" code.

BREAKING CHANGE: dc_contact_is_verified() and dc_contact_get_verifier_id() are removed.

BREAKING CHANGE: the JSON-RPC Contact object loses the `isVerified` and `verifierId` fields. A bot reading `snapshot.is_verified` now gets an `AttributeError` at runtime.

BREAKING CHANGE: the Python bindings lose `Contact.is_verified()` and `Contact.get_verifier()`.

BREAKING CHANGE: DC_STR_CONTACT_VERIFIED (35) is removed, so UIs should stop registering a translation for it. A stock id core does not know is logged and otherwise ignored, so an un-updated client keeps working.
