Rename the document #3

related to issue #2, calling this document OpenID Connect Verifiable Credentials is too broad of a scope and is too conflicting with OpenID4VC spec family that it builds upon. Suggest to pick something more specific to a particular use-case it tries to address.

The reason I chose that name was because of the Connect -- the base OpenID4VCI is only uses general OAuth, and any type of VC. This is specialized to OpenID Connect, in terms of how the credentials are structured and how they are issued. Does that make sense?

Sakurann commented 1 year ago

I understand the rationale, but it is is confusing and close enough to OpenID4VC - people already call is OIDC4VC, etc.

Would be great if can we pick a more explicit name to highlight the standard claims from OIDC are the key part.
