For replies to regular lookups, this facilitates discovery of new floodfills
and "backwards" searching (further-from-the-key) for robustness.
* The key for an exploration lookup is usually generated randomly.
Therefore, the response's non-floodfill peer_hashes may be selected using an
optimized algorithm, such as providing peers that are close to the key but not
necessarily the closest in the entire local network database, to avoid an
inefficient sort or search of the entire local database.
Other strategies such as caching may also be appropriate.
This is implementation-dependent.
* Typical number of hashes returned: 3
* Recommended maximum number of hashes to return: 16
