This package exposes a simple API to seamlessly use a variety of key stretching functions, also used as key derivation

functions. It aims at minimum code adaptation in your code, and easy parameterization.

It completely relies on built-ins, so there's no change in implementations.

Supported Key Stretching Functions (or Key Derivation Functions are):

- Argon2 family

- bcrypt

- Scrypt

- PBKDF2

#### What is ksf?

> In cryptography, key stretching techniques are used to make a possibly weak key, typically a password or passphrase,

> more secure against a brute-force attack by increasing the resources (time and possibly space) it takes to test each

> possible key.
