    /* Document-class: OpenSSL::Digest
     *
     * OpenSSL::Digest allows you to compute message digests (sometimes
     * interchangeably called "hashes") of arbitrary data that are
     * cryptographically secure, i.e. a Digest implements a secure one-way
     * function.
     *
     * One-way functions offer some useful properties. E.g. given two
     * distinct inputs the probability that both yield the same output
     * is highly unlikely. Combined with the fact that every message digest
     * algorithm has a fixed-length output of just a few bytes, digests are
     * often used to create unique identifiers for arbitrary data. A common
     * example is the creation of a unique id for binary documents that are
     * stored in a database.
     *
     * Another useful characteristic of one-way functions (and thus the name)
     * is that given a digest there is no indication about the original
     * data that produced it, i.e. the only way to identify the original input
     * is to "brute-force" through every possible combination of inputs.
     *
     * These characteristics make one-way functions also ideal companions
     * for public key signature algorithms: instead of signing an entire
     * document, first a hash of the document is produced with a considerably
     * faster message digest algorithm and only the few bytes of its output
     * need to be signed using the slower public key algorithm. To validate
     * the integrity of a signed document, it suffices to re-compute the hash
     * and verify that it is equal to that in the signature.
     *
     * Among the supported message digest algorithms are:
     * * SHA, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512
     * * MD2, MD4, MDC2 and MD5
     * * RIPEMD160
     * * DSS, DSS1 (Pseudo algorithms to be used for DSA signatures. DSS is
     *   equal to SHA and DSS1 is equal to SHA1)
     *
     * For each of these algorithms, there is a sub-class of Digest that
     * can be instantiated as simply as e.g.
     *
     *   digest = OpenSSL::Digest::SHA1.new
     *
     * === Mapping between Digest class and sn/ln
     *
     * The sn (short names) and ln (long names) are defined in
     * <openssl/object.h> and <openssl/obj_mac.h>. They are textual
     * representations of ASN.1 OBJECT IDENTIFIERs. Each supported digest
     * algorithm has an OBJECT IDENTIFIER associated to it and those again
     * have short/long names assigned to them.
     * E.g. the OBJECT IDENTIFIER for SHA-1 is 1.3.14.3.2.26 and its
     * sn is "SHA1" and its ln is "sha1".
     * ==== MD2
     * * sn: MD2
     * * ln: md2
     * ==== MD4
     * * sn: MD4
     * * ln: md4
     * ==== MD5
     * * sn: MD5
     * * ln: md5
     * ==== SHA
     * * sn: SHA
     * * ln: SHA
     * ==== SHA-1
     * * sn: SHA1
     * * ln: sha1
     * ==== SHA-224
     * * sn: SHA224
     * * ln: sha224
     * ==== SHA-256
     * * sn: SHA256
     * * ln: sha256
     * ==== SHA-384
     * * sn: SHA384
     * * ln: sha384
     * ==== SHA-512
     * * sn: SHA512
     * * ln: sha512
     *
     * "Breaking" a message digest algorithm means defying its one-way
     * function characteristics, i.e. producing a collision or finding a way
     * to get to the original data by means that are more efficient than
     * brute-forcing etc. Most of the supported digest algorithms can be
     * considered broken in this sense, even the very popular MD5 and SHA1
     * algorithms. Should security be your highest concern, then you should
     * probably rely on SHA224, SHA256, SHA384 or SHA512.
     *
     * === Hashing a file
     *
     *   data = File.read('document')
     *   sha256 = OpenSSL::Digest::SHA256.new
     *   digest = sha256.digest(data)
     *
     * === Hashing several pieces of data at once
     *
     *   data1 = File.read('file1')
     *   data2 = File.read('file2')
     *   data3 = File.read('file3')
     *   sha256 = OpenSSL::Digest::SHA256.new
     *   sha256 << data1
     *   sha256 << data2
     *   sha256 << data3
     *   digest = sha256.digest
