Expand description

The BLAKE3 hash of zero bytes: the root of the empty blob.

The empty blob spans zero discovery blocks, so it is the one hash whose coverage is empty on every honest holder. For it, ProbeResponseExt::consistent_with only requires an empty coverage, and the requester reads has_blob alone to learn whether the node serves it.
