Pack(File) or DataFile? #2877

Description
What are you trying to do?
When working on implementations, I always get a bit confused whether to use the name "pack"/"pack file" or "data file".
In the users documentation part "Terminology", it is referred as "Packs", but the dir in the repository layout is /data.
Also, in the implementations, the constant is called DataFile which may be mixed up with DataBlob but I've seen may places where variables/comments or user outputs refer to "packs".
I suggest to:
- change
DataFileintoPackFile - look for "data file" et al in code/comments and change if necessary
- add an explanation in
resign.rstthat packs are stored under/datafor historic reasons
Is this a common view? I can prepare an PR if we agree that this clarifies things.
