/*
Computes a deterministic minimal height merkle tree hash.
If the number of items is not a power of two, some leaves
will be at different levels. Tries to keep both sides of
the tree the same size, but the left may be one greater.

Use this for short deterministic trees, such as the validator list.
For larger datasets, use IAVLTree.
