Sign upAdd `initial-values` matrix parameter to Generic DID Parameters #84

Just a note that we're using lowercase terms now for everything.. |

Wasn't the original suggestion that the value of this parameter would be a complete initial DID document? Are you now proposing that the value could be more flexible, e.g. anything that helps the DID to be resolved when otherwise that would not (yet) be possible? I think both are interesting ideas to explore! |

Though some methods (Sidetree-based ones) would use the parameter to pass
the initial DID Document state, I figured there's no reason to constrict it
to that exact value, given other methods could use different values/formats
of values for their needs.

I have connected my GitHub and W3C accounts, so the IPR flag on this should be good to go now. |

Hey @csuwildcat you asked on today's 2019-11-05 DID WG call what's the next step for this. I think this is a good feature, but we haven't gotten much other feedback from the WG yet. If you don't mind I'd like to wait a bit longer, perhaps until we've had an opportunity to discuss matrix parameters during one of the upcoming WG calls.. |

This PR is intended to start the next phase of discussion around the needs highlighted in issue #70, regarding the ability to resolve DIDs for Methods that require a period of time before their inclusion/state has been propagated in an underling trust system (blockchain, ledger, etc.).
