Replace Keccak256+MSB tagging with SHA256. Remove leaf nodes entirely,
replacing them with opaque stem hashes. Simplify NodeKind to just
Terminator and Internal. Add HashStem (8-level binary SHA256 tree
matching bintrie StemNode.Hash). Reduce max trie depth from 256 to 248
(31-byte stem path). Replace BuildTrie/LeafOp with
BuildInternalTree/StemKeyValue.
