Add hash function BLAKE2 to crypto:hash/hmac
Adds two hash functions blake2b and blake2s (64 bit hash and 32 bit hash respectively). These are modern and standard hash functions used in blockchains and encrypted communication protocols (e.g. Noise - http://www.noiseprotocol.org/). The hash functions are available in OpenSSL since version 1.1.1. Also add test cases and mention in documentation.
