Continuation DID Document URL should support Hashlink #14

The spec says that if the Continuation DID Document is in a mutable store, it must be signed with the transaction signing key along with a timestamp. But the problem with this is that the document could change at any time. Instead we can support Hashlink which solves this and has other benefits as well:

Yes this is a great suggestion. We didn’t have hashlink in our toolset at the time, but it will greatly cleanup the awkwardness in the BTCR method spec around mutable/immutable store handling
