integrity => correctness

Any thoughts on including SHA512 tests instead of SHA1, given that SHA1 is
obsolete and should not be used?

The crypto API guarantees HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE, so checking that again is not
very useful.

The zeroization above is unnecessary.  If it's done anyway, it is just an
initialization, so it should use an initializer '= {}' instead of
memzero_explicit() which is intended for "destruction".

This alias does not make sense and is unnecessary.  These are library functions
that are not exposed by name through the crypto API, so there is no need to wire
them up to the module autoloading accordingly.

This needs to include <crypto/hash.h>.

Otherwise there will be errors if someone includes this as their first header.
