Is there any reason we can't derive Send+Sync instead of manual impl?

Is it ok if this panics here (from calling unwrap on a send error, even if we want to ignore the send error)?

Should this be i == thread_count - 1? Since i is zero-indexed, wouldn't it always miss this case?

General question: what happens if one of the hash builder threads panics? I think |

This updates the overlay root calculation code to compute partial roots for a given trie using an internal thread pool, sharded by first nibble, and then combines these together into a single root.
Uses a fork of alloy-trie with the ability to compute partial roots from a
HashBuilderand compute the merged root from an array ofHashBuilders.
