    This is used after a hash prefix is looked up in a threatList and there is a match.
    The client side threatList only holds partial hashes so the client must query this method
    to determine if there is a full hash match of a threat.

    Args:

            by a URI, it must be encoded using the web safe base64 variant (RFC 4648).
            Example:
                uri = "http://example.com"
                sha256 = sha256()

        threat_type: The ThreatLists to search in. Multiple ThreatLists may be specified.
            For the list on threat types, see:

            threat_type = [webrisk_v1.ThreatType.MALWARE, webrisk_v1.ThreatType.SOCIAL_ENGINEERING]
