In #2173 it was suggested to implement a ternary Merkle tree by making use of the chaining variable of SHA256Compress. Since we will not be using SHA256Compress for Sapling, and since the discussion on #2173 was specific to SHA256Compress, I decided to open this new ticket for a similar idea applied to Pedersen hashes (#2234).
