//! Content-addressing — the one primitive the runtime GROUNDS.
//!
//! A [`ContentAddress`] is the BLAKE3 hash (Aumasson, O'Connor, Neves &
//! Wilcox-O'Hearn 2020, "BLAKE3: one function, fast everywhere") of a
//! CANONICAL byte encoding of a definition. BLAKE3 is a sound tree-mode hash
//! (Gunsing, CRYPTO 2022, under the Bertoni–Daemen sound-tree-hashing
//! conditions), so the same function supports incrementally verified
//! streaming (Bao — O'Connor) without changing what an address means.
//! Everything else about the `.prx` format is learned from the meta-`.prx`;
//! this is the bottom of the reflexive tower — it is what "reference" and
//! "agreement" MEAN. Two peers agree a definition is the same iff they hash
//! the same canonical bytes to the same address.
//!
//! The canonical ENCODING (which bytes are fed in) is the codec layer's concern
//! — the target is a multihash-tagged DAG-CBOR canonical form — and the
//! *definition* fed in is the concept's `morphisms_from` closure + axioms +
//! lexical entry, NOT its name (definition-bearing addressing, which closes the
//! G5 wire gap). This primitive is deliberately encoding-agnostic: it grounds
//! only the hash, so the codec and the definition-encoding can be chosen and
//! evolved without changing what identity *means*.
