did:key, the DID method every portable object (FEP-ef61) can be
verified with, because it needs no resolution: the DID is the key.
did:key:z6Mk… is the multibase of a Multikey, and its one verification
method is did:key:z6Mk…#z6Mk…. FEP-ef61 asks for base58btc only, so
that one key has one DID; a DID in any other multibase is not read.
