Currently we have an associated type on hash types `Inner` with
accompanying methods `into_inner`, `from_inner`, `as_inner`. Also, we
provide a way to create new wrapped hash types. The use of 'inner'
becomes ambiguous with the addition of wrapped types because the inner
could be the inner hash type or the `Inner` byte array of the inner
wrapped hash type.
In an effort to make the API more clear and uniform do the following:
- Rename `Inner` -> `Bytes`
- Rename `*_inner` -> `*_byte_array`
- Rename the inner hash to/from methods to `*_raw_hash`
Correct method prefix `into_` -> `to_` because theses methods convert
owned `Copy` types.
Add the trait Bound `Copy` to the `Bytes` type because we rely on this
trait bound for the conversion methods to be correctly named according
to convention.
Because of the dependency hole created by `secp256k1` this patch changes
the secp dependency to a git tag dependency that includes changes to the
hashes calls required so that we can get green lights on CI in this
repo.
Currently we have a few things mixed up in the feature gating of
`hashes`.
Observe that:
- `io::Write` is not related to allocation.
- "std" should be able to enable "alloc".
Improve feature gating by doing:
- Enable "alloc" from "std" and simplify `cfg` codebase wide.
- Enable "internals/alloc" from "alloc".
- Fix feature gating to use the minimal requirement i.e., "alloc".
We would like to bring the `bitcoin_hashes` crate into the
`rust-bitcoin` repository.
Import `bitcoin_hashes` into `rust-bitocin/hashes`, doing so looses all
the commit history from the original crate but if we archive the
original repository then the history will be preserved. We maintain the
same version number obviously and in the changelog we note the change of
repository.
Commit hash that was tip of `bitcoin_hashes` at time of import:
commit 54c16249e06cc6b7870c7fc07d90f489d82647c7
Includes making `embedded` and `fuzzing` per-crate i.e., move them into
`bitcoin` as hashes includes these also.
NOTE: Does _not_ enable fuzzing for `hashes` in CI.
Notes on CI:
Attempts to merge in the github actions from the hashes crate however reduces
coverage by not running hashes tests for beta toolchain. Some additional
work could be done to improve the CI to increase efficiency without
reducing coverage. Leaving for another day.
