Per #24 the current `algorithm:value` format is non-standard. Multibase is how we encode public keys as `publicKeyMultibase`, so this adds consistency for cryptographic material. This change also deprecate sha2-256 codec as previously decided by the TSC, and clarifies guidelines for extending this part of the spec for other ecosystems.
