identd here was chosen because it feels like ident alone might be confused for the first USER parameter, but i'm willing to bikeshed this bit


`<algo>` should be the hash algorithm used to produce the fingerprint supplied such as `sha-256`. Its value should be taken from IANA's [Hash Function Textual Names](https://www.iana.org/assignments/hash-function-text-names/hash-function-text-names.xhtml) registry, or if using an algorithm not listed should use a name consisting of only lower case letters, numbers or hyphens.
