https://docs.python.org/3/library/hashlib.html

Changed in version 3.9: All hashlib constructors take a keyword-only argument usedforsecurity with default value True. A false value allows the use of insecure and blocked hashing algorithms in restricted environments. False indicates that the hashing algorithm is not used in a security context, e.g. as a non-cryptographic one-way compression function.

We can handle this in 2-steps.

  1. Adding an optional parameter usedforsecurity everywhere.
  2. Actually use the value.
