This is a continuation of https://github.com/w3f/PPPs/pull/10

Compared to https://github.com/w3f/PPPs/pull/10, I've changed my mind about truncated proofs. I think that it's better if the client can fully verify the proofs that are returned even when the response size limit would be exceeded. This also means that the proof no longer needs to be deterministic, and I've removed the paragraph about this.

@cheme Do you have any opinion? I think that you and I are pretty much the only people who have opinions/interest on this topic.
