[issue17276] HMAC: deprecate default hash

I would prefer to directly raise an exception in Python 3.4. Developers will not notice a warning, warning are hidden by default. How many developers run their tests using -Werror?

Having to add a parameter to hmac() in applications to port them to Python 3.4 should not be so hard. And using MD5 is really a major security issue, don't you think so?
