Comment:

 I've cleaned up the incorrectness wrt the specification of DIGESTVAL and
 DIGESTTYPE in 5b7a7d6264f24c

 It's not a mistake that DIGEST is mandatory; it is indeed required.

 The future-proofing can be handled by adding new k=v entries that don't
 have to be digests.

 A digesttype needs to be unique -- it is something like "sha1" or
 "sha256".  We can't have more than one of each type for a given object.

 I've also sent an email to tor-dev asking if we intend to use these at
 all.
