[P1] Keep IP hash stable with previous releases
The new implementation feeds the textual representation of an IpAddr into the SHA-256 hasher (write!(&mut buffer, "{value}")), whereas the previous code hashed the raw octets. This changes the digest for every IPv4/IPv6 value, so clients that depended on the stable hash produced in prior versions will see different redacted metadata even though the crate only bumps from 0.23.2 to 0.23.3 and the changelog claims the output is unchanged. If compatibility matters, the hashing should continue to use the byte representation (or the version should be bumped/behavior documented).
