Fix method equality to be able to validate a JWT Fix method equality for being abile to validate a JWT parsed from JWS token. Comparing the two SigningMethod interfaces produce false negative for the most of the cases where a token is received over th wire and it has to be parsed to JWT from a JWS as so far there isn't any other way; the equality fails because the types which implements the interface are defined on pointers, hence they cannot be assigned to type values and do a comparison over the values, and the addresses never will be the same because the one assigned to the internal field of the JWS values is one that it's not exposed, so a new one SigningMethod (pointer) must be provided to the `Validate`, provoking that the condition always fails
JOSE is a comprehensive set of JWT, JWS, and JWE libraries.
The only other JWS/JWE/JWT implementations are specific to JWT, and none were particularly pleasant to work with.
These libraries should provide an easy, straightforward way to securely create, parse, and validate JWS, JWE, and JWTs.
JWE is currently unimplemented.
The docs can be found at [godoc.org] docs, as usual.
