RustCrypto: Password Hashing Traits

Traits which describe the functionality of [password hashing algorithms].

Includes a no_std-friendly implementation of the [PHC string format] (a well-defined subset of the Modular Crypt Format a.k.a. MCF) which uses the traits this crate defines.

See [RustCrypto/password-hashes] for algorithm implementations which use these traits.
