Description
Just a small feature request: having a finalize-message-digest! procedure to finalize the digest into a user-supplied blob/string/vector would be very nice.
Moreover having a non-deprecated way to update a digest with only a subset of a blob/string would be also nice: while you can easily slice a string using substring (you do pay the price of a new allocation though) you can't do so with blobs.
Thank you for your work, message-digest is a nice piece of software!

3.7.0: added ! versions for all result-form calls. added [start end) range optional arguments to all blob/string/u8vector/object calls.
adding a START argument to the update phase procedure is a breaking change, at least w/o a shim procedure. and needs every *-primitive modified to recognize the offset.
added (finalize-message-digest! digest buffer) to rel 3.5.0, buffer is blob/string/u8vector.
not exactly what is wanted but what is possible ;-)
adding slices as source, and destination (as above), is a difficult fit in the current code.
