[New-bugs-announce] [issue18582] PBKDF2 support

[Christian Heimes]

New submission from Christian Heimes:

The patch is a proof of concept for PBKDF2 support for the OpenSSL variant of hashlib. It's a thin wrapper around PKCS5_PBKDF2_HMAC() and is deliberately designed as low level API with bytes and input and output types. High level wrappers can do the conversation and choose sensible values for salt, iterations and key length.
