Skein hash (for fine-grained uses) #82

@DonaldTsang

Description

@DonaldTsang

Skein hashes can have arbitrary lengths.
Which means that the same algorithm can be used to generate 256, 512 and 1024 bit hashes.
A longer hash means files are less likely to have hash collisions.
They can also produce shorter hashes for convenience.
It is as fast as BLAKE, faster than all other SHA3 finalists and SHA2.
