[Skiboot] [PATCH 1/3] secvar/backend: rename verify_signature parameters

verify_signature() currently takes newcert and new_data_len. However,
these variables are used only as parameters to
mbedtls_pkcs7_signed_hash_verify() where they represent a hash value
and the length of the hash value.

verify_signature() is static, and the only caller of the function is
process_update(). process_update() passes in tbhbuffer and tbhbuffersize.
Those are unfortunate names too - because the data that process_update()
passes in is not a to-be-hashed buffer, but a hash. We'll fix that later.

Call the parameters hash and hash_len.
