Remove includes of (md5|sha1|sha2).h headers

2020-01-14T12:10:36Z

Remove it everywhere, except where it is still needed.

Convert users of {MD5,SHA1,SHA256,SHA512}Summation to use Hashes

2020-01-14T12:10:36Z

This makes use of the a function GetHashString() that returns the specific hash string. We also need to implement another overload of Add() for signed chars with sizes, so the existing users do not require reinterpret_cast everywhere.

Use a steady clock source for progress reporting

2018-05-28T15:59:35Z

Clock changes while apt is running can result in strange reports confusing (and amusing) users. Sadly, to keep the ABI for now the code is a bit more ugly than it would need to be.

avoid some useless casts reported by -Wuseless-cast

2017-12-13T22:53:41Z

The casts are useless, but the reports show some where we can actually improve the code by replacing them with better alternatives like converting whatever int type into a string instead of casting to a specific one which might in the future be too small. Reported-By: gcc -Wuseless-cast
