bip340 was not very descriptive, so that was changed to be xonly
The idea of a tweak was not very clear, instead the merkle root of the script path is a lot easier to reason about, so the code reflects this change. The terminology of internal pubkey and external pubkey is used to make it conceptually simpler. Similarly, a Tap Root is also not very clear, so we now use methods of a public key or a tapleaf/tapbranch to construct the needed external public keys and control blocks.
