  -----------
  Modernize ckpasswd documentation about hash schemes

No longer give an example of weak hashes from "htpasswd -d" limited to
8 characters.  Mention instead SHA-256 and yescript with openssl and
perl commands to generate them.

Explain what is the cost factor of yescript, and how to generate a
decent salt.
