RustCrypto: PHC String Format

Pure Rust implementation of the Password Hashing Competition (PHC) string format, which is used to store password hashes.

Example (Argon2):

$argon2d$v=19$m=512,t=3,p=2$5VtWOO3cGWYQHEMaYGbsfQ$AcmqasQgW/wI6wAHAMk4aQ

Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV) Policy

MSRV increases are not considered breaking changes and can happen in patch releases.

The crate MSRV accounts for all supported targets and crate feature combinations, excluding explicitly unstable features.
