AppendEncode is like Encode, but it uses a destination buffer directly.

DecodeTrieNode provides an IPLD codec decode interface for Tendermint Merkle tree nodes It's not possible to meet the Decode(na ipld.NodeAssembler, in io.Reader) interface for a function that supports all tree types (multicodec types), unlike with encoding.

DecodeTrieNodeBytes is like DecodeTrieNode, but it uses an input buffer directly.

Encode provides an IPLD codec encode interface for Tendermint Merkle tree node IPLDs.

NodeAndKind returns the node and its kind.
