Function par_validate_message_hash_chain_of_feed 

pub fn par_validate_message_hash_chain_of_feed<T, U>(
    messages: &[T],
    previous: Option<U>,
) -> Result<()>
where
    [T]: ParallelSlice<T>,
    T: Sync + AsRef<[u8]>,
    U: Sync + Send + Copy + AsRef<[u8]>,

Batch validate a collection of messages, all by the same author, ordered by ascending sequence number, with no missing messages.

It expects the messages to be the JSON encoded message of shape: {key: "", value: {...}}

This will mainly be useful during replication. Collect all the latest messages from a feed you’re replicating and batch validate all the messages at once.

let valid_message_1 = r##"{
