Previously `PasswordHash::hash_password` and `PasswordHash::generate` took `&str` for `Salt`, however this is a bit of a confusing API because the first thing it does is attempt to convert to a `Salt` which upholds several invariants including "B64" encoding. This change makes the `Salt` parameter explicit so it's clear what type is responsible for checking those invariants.
