/**
 * Prefix for hashing functions.
 *
 * These prefixes are inserted before the source material used to
 * generate various hashes. This is done to put each hash in its own
 * "space." This way, two different types of objects with the
 * same binary data will produce different hashes.
 *
 * Each prefix is a 4-byte value with the last byte set to zero
 * and the first three bytes formed from the ASCII equivalent of
 * some arbitrary string. For example "TXN".
