Module sodiumoxide::crypto::hash::sha256

SHA-256.

There has been considerable degradation of public confidence in the security conjectures for many hash functions, including SHA-256. However, for the moment, there do not appear to be alternatives that inspire satisfactory levels of confidence. One can hope that NIST's SHA-3 competition will improve the situation.
