Description

The JS lib generates strings as output from `.getHeads`, while the Java API wants `ChangeHash` objects.

Perhaps add a string ctor to ChangeHash and/or string arity to `encodeChangesSince`.

Research direction

Start by comparing the Java ChangeHash API and encodeChangesSince behavior with the strings returned by the JavaScript library's getHeads. Determine whether string construction, string arguments, or both are needed; done means Java callers can use those outputs without manual conversion and the API behavior is covered by tests.
