Go package for working with Merkle trees

Calculate merkle roots, build and verify proofs that data is in a merkle tree (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle_tree).

Specifically, this package is designed to facilitate the generation and verification of "Merkle proofs" — cryptographic proofs that a given subset of data "belongs" to a larger set. BitTorrent, for example, requires downloading many small pieces of a file from many untrusted peers; Merkle proofs allow the downloader to verify that each piece is part of the full file.

When sha256 is used as the hashing algorithm, the implementation matches the merkle tree described in RFC 6962, 'Certificate Transparency'.
