*
* \brief The hash API
* provides an unpredictable hash value for variable length data.
* A hash object contains a random vector (which is hidden from clients
* of this API) to make the actual hash value unpredictable.
*
* The algorithm used in the API guarantees the probability of hash
* collision; in the current implementation, as long as the values stored
* in the random vector are unpredictable, the probability of hash
* collision between arbitrary two different values is at most 1/2^16.
*
* Although the API is generic about the hash keys, it mainly expects
* DNS names (and sometimes IPv4/v6 addresses) as inputs. It has an
* upper limit of the input length, and may run slow to calculate the
* hash values for large inputs.
*
* This API is designed to be general so that it can provide multiple
* different hash contexts that have different random vectors. However,
* it should be typical to have a single context for an entire system.
* To support such cases, the API also provides a single-context mode.
*
* \li MP:
* The hash object is almost read-only. Once the internal random vector
* is initialized, no write operation will occur, and there will be no
* need to lock the object to calculate actual hash values.
*
* \li Reliability:
* In some cases this module uses low-level data copy to initialize the
* random vector. Errors in this part are likely to crash the server or
* corrupt memory.
*
* \li Resources:
* A buffer, used as a random vector for calculating hash values.
*
* \li Security:
* This module intends to provide unpredictable hash values in
* adversarial environments in order to avoid denial of service attacks
* to hash buckets.
* Its unpredictability relies on the quality of entropy to build the
* random vector.
*
* \li Standards:
* None.
