// Page message can represent the results of
// paginated queries to a server which return
// transactions and outputs. This should be
// enough to cover just about every blockchain
// type in LBRY: claims, supports, payments, etc.
//
// Assembling Result Page
//
// To prevent unnecessarily duplicating the same
// raw TX many times if the result is TXOs in
// the same transaction, the Page is split between
// a list of `txos` (pointers) and a list of `txs`
// (actual raw transactions). To assemble the page,
//
// 1) Loop over all `txs`, parsing them into a TX
// object as desired and adding them into a
// mapping keyed by "tx hash -> TX object".
//
// 2) Create a new list to hold the page results.
//
// 3) Loop over all `txos` adding it along with the
// TX retrieved from previously created TX mapping.
// Optionally, lookup and include the channel `txo`
// using the same process.
//
// 4) You should now have a list of TXOs with their
// associated TX and for claims in a channel also
// associated channel TXO and TX.
//
// If the Page object is used strictly to return a list
// of TXs then the `txos` attribute will be empty. The
// semantics of which field is being paginated (`txos` vs
// `txs`) is determined in context of the RPC API. An
// RPC method such as `get_transactions` is likely to
// be paginating the `txs` list.
//
