A new hashlib module to replace the md5 and sha modules. It adds
support for additional secure hashes such as SHA-256 and SHA-512. The
hashlib module uses OpenSSL for fast platform optimized
implementations of algorithms when available. The old md5 and sha
modules still exist as wrappers around hashlib to preserve backwards
compatibility.
