This PR aims to provide module descriptions for several modules as well as more elaborate examples for modules I've used.
In
openssl::hash
I've moved the examples to functions that the example used (hash
andhash_xof
).I intentionally modified only the examples I touched and left the others alone (not to inflate the diffs).
It's a little bit challenging to come up with a example that is both short and works across all supported OpenSSL flavors. I hope this will provide a nice starting point for people new to the crate as it shows how to build more complex algorithms out of OpenSSL primitives.
Comments and suggestions welcome! Thanks in advance.
