Validate a JWS Using ECDSA P-256 SHA-256

#  This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
#  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

#  This example takes a JSON signature in compact serialization format,
#  and uses an ECDSA public key to validate and recover the protected header and payload.

#  We only need a public key for signature validation.  This is the ECDSA public key
#  that is used:

#       {"kty":"EC", 
#        "crv":"P-256",
