The text in addition to the name, about, and picture fields confuses implementers about where the i tag should be placed. This can be interpreted as a "tags" field should be in a JSON in "content" of kind:0.
A new optional `i` tag is introduced for `kind 0` metadata event contents in addition to name, about, picture fields as included in [NIP-01](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/01.md):
However, i tag should be in tags directly under the root of event actually.
This PR clarify that i tags should be in "tags" field directly under the root.
Background
I checked the background of this NIP, I found that i tag should be in "tags" directly under the root.
In the very initial version of this NIP, identities was in "content" JSON.
