Extract hash.js for use in ripemd160

[dcousens]

Right now hash.js is a really good plug-and-play model for block hashs.
Perhaps we could extract it to a module where it can be used to easily implement block hashes that support streaming.

This would at least stop me having to duplicate it for ripemd160.

@dominictarr thoughts?

[dominictarr]

sure! good idea, make a new module and then add a pr so that this module depends on it

[dcousens]

@calvinmetcalf relevant to https://github.com/crypto-browserify/cipher-base?
In terms of, is it worth extracting this to that module?

[calvinmetcalf]

yes probably a good idea

[fanatid]

Any ideas about name for this new module?

[calvinmetcalf]

browserify-md5?

@calvinmetcalf no, this is other issue 😄
support node streams in sha.js and ripemd160 (and in md5 that we want to extract) without cipher-base

[calvinmetcalf]

ah then like hash-base or something

[fanatid]

nice name, I'll try do this in nearest time!

[dcousens]

@fanatid maybe find out what the padding standard is called, and use that with the name.

[dcousens]

Thanks @fanatid

Now just for ripemd160 👍
