Creates and returns a Verify object that uses the given algorithm.
Use getHashes to obtain an array of names of the available
signing algorithms. Optional options argument controls the stream.Writable behavior.
In some cases, a Verify instance can be created using the name of a signature
algorithm, such as 'RSA-SHA256', instead of a digest algorithm. This will use
the corresponding digest algorithm. This does not work for all signature
algorithms, such as 'ecdsa-with-SHA256', so it is best to always use digest
algorithm names.
