Subject: [COSE] [cose-issues] Define detached content (#58)

Could you add a definition of "detached content" for (at least) COSE_Sign1 and COSE_Mac0? Right now detached content is mentioned in the draft only for COSE_Encrypted and COSE_Enveloped We would like to refer to "detached content" also for these other structures

In practice, t would be enough to simply write: 
"If the payload is transported separately **(ie detached content)**, then a nil CBOR object is placed in this location and it is the responsibility of the application to ensure that it will be transported without changes"
in section 41 and 61
