About signature verify

Signature recovery does not verify anything on its own. Given a message and a signature it always returns some address, and a tampered signature simply returns a different one. Verification means comparing the recovered address against the one you expected — which is why this asks for that address. Works for both personal_sign messages and raw digests, and the two produce different results for the same input because personal_sign prefixes the message first.
