[refactor] PSBT parsing: rename `change_data`'s unverified fields to `claimed_*`

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a code cleanup that renames internal data fields from 'fingerprint' and 'derivation_path' to 'claimed_fingerprints' and 'claimed_derivation_paths'. It does not change how the software verifies Bitcoin transaction data or how it protects users. The rename is meant to make it clearer to programmers that these values come from an external, untrusted source and should not be trusted until independently verified. The actual security logic is unchanged.

Recommended action

No action required. Treat as normal maintenance/refactor. If auditing the PSBT trust model, focus on whether verified_ values are actually produced by re-derivation, which this commit does not address.

Security signals we found

01

No functional security change; only identifier renaming and documentation

02

Expanded docstring explicitly distinguishes claimed_ vs verified_ data

03

No new validation, no removed validation, no algorithm change

04

Tests updated only to match renamed keys
