        A stream that generates a merkle tree based on the incoming data

        From `The Dat Protocol`_: 
        
        .. _The Dat Protocol: https://datprotocol.github.io/book/ch01-01-flat-tree.html
        
            A hash tree or merkle tree is a tree in which every leaf node is labelled
            with the hash of a data block and every non-leaf node is labelled with the
            cryptographic hash of the labels of its child nodes. Merkle trees in Dat
            are specialized `flat trees`_ that contain the content of the archives.

        A note on naming
        ================
        
        For the purposes of uniformity and easy of discovery alongside the reference
        implementation, we use the same module name as `merkle-tree-stream`_. However,
        there is currently no stream implemented, only a generator is available. This
        is because the reference implementation of Hypercore 7 makes use of the
        generator only. A `stream`_ implementation may follow.
