    Configurable token hash algorithm
    
    Tokens were always hashed with MD5. This change allows tokens to
    be hashed with SHA256 (or any other algorithm supported by the
    keystoneclient token hash function). This is for security
    hardening.
    
    There's a new configuration option 'hash_algorithm' in the [token]
    section. This is the algorithm to use for hashing tokens for the
    revocation list. If this is not set then MD5 is used. If it's set to
    a hash algorithm (such as 'sha256'), then PKI tokens will be hashed
    using that algorithm. Also, the configured hash algorithm is now
    set on the revocation list object for use by the auth_token
    middleware.
