Research direction
Search the TypeScript repository for uses of Block and inspect the SHA256-related code where it represents 64-byte chunks. Rename the concept consistently to paddedBytes, update affected references and tests, and confirm the test suite passes.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Not a problem but more logical understanding of the code. During a PR review it's discussed that Block meant a different understanding in our domain. In our code base it's represents the chunks of 64 bytes used by the SHA256 for hashing.
Describe the solution you'd like
Would be really nice to rename this concept to paddedBytes which will be easy to understand.
