    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 PKI tokens, so is
    used
    
    a) when storing the token in the db
    b) as the hash in the revocation list
    
    hash_algorithm defaults to 'md5' for backwards compatibility.
