 * @brief A type specifying a cryptographic hash (or CRC check) algorithm.
 *
 * This type is overloaded to support both cryptographic hash digest algorithms and cyclical-reduncancy
 * check (CRC) algorithms. See the available `PARCCryptoHashType` enum types for an exhaustive
 * list of the supported algorithms.
