[security] harden account update logic (#3198)
* on account update, ensure that public key has not changed
* change expected error message
* also support the case of changing account keys when expired (not waiting for handshake)
* tweak account update hardening logic, add tests for updating account with pubkey expired
* add check for whether incoming data was via federator, accepting keys if so
* use freshest window for federated account updates + comment about it
