[Commented On] D9750: node: introduce nodeconstants class

[joerg.sonnenberger (Joerg Sonnenberger)]

  I'm aiming more for "only one hash size in the repository" and the magic constants staying the same independent of the hash function. The hash itself is planned to be tagged, i.e. 248bit for the hash function and the trailing byte as type tag. The SHA1 replacement would use "01" and in principle allow for existing SHA1 nodes to embedded directly into the larger 256bit space as type "00".
