// MsgGetHeaders implements the Message interface and represents a kaspa
// getheaders message. It is used to request a list of block headers for
// blocks starting after the last known hash in the slice of block locator
// hashes. The list is returned via a headers message (MsgHeaders) and is
// limited by a specific hash to stop at or the maximum number of block headers
// per message, which is currently 2000.
//
// Set the HighHash field to the hash at which to stop and use
// AddBlockLocatorHash to build up the list of block locator hashes.
//
// The algorithm for building the block locator hashes should be to add the
// hashes in reverse order until you reach the genesis block. In order to keep
// the list of locator hashes to a resonable number of entries, first add the
// most recent 10 block hashes, then double the step each loop iteration to
// exponentially decrease the number of hashes the further away from head and
// closer to the genesis block you get.
