a reference to stored cloud data: an id paired with the hash of its state
This is the canonical way to point at something in the cloud. The id names
what: a document's uuid at the high level, or a stored file name (like
<id>.content) at the low level. The hash names which version, and
changes every time that data mutates. Reads take one of these, and mutations
return a fresh one with the new hash.
