### Hashes
For storing multiple hashes, a hashes type is used. This will be serialized as a list of hash strings. The list is used to reduce serialization overhead, and when loaded, may be parsed out into a dictionary for faster lookup. Only one hash string of each hash type is allowed. If there are duplicates, the object is invalid and MUST be ignored.
