/// Salt string.

/// In password hashing, a "salt" is an additional value used to
/// personalize/tweak the output of a password hashing function for a given
/// input password.
///
/// Salts help defend against attacks based on precomputed tables of hashed
/// passwords, i.e. "[rainbow tables][1]".
///
/// The [`Salt`] type implements the RECOMMENDED best practices for salts
/// described in the [PHC string format specification][2], namely:
///
/// > - Maximum lengths for salt, output and parameter values are meant to help
/// >   consumer implementations, in particular written in C and using
/// >   stack-allocated buffers. These buffers must account for the worst case,
/// >   i.e. the maximum defined length. Therefore, keep these lengths low.
/// > - The role of salts is to achieve uniqueness. A random salt is fine for
/// >   that as long as its length is sufficient; a 16-byte salt would work well
/// >   (by definition, UUID are very good salts, and they encode over exactly
/// >   16 bytes). 16 bytes encode as 22 characters in B64. Functions should
/// >   disallow salt values that are too small for security (4 bytes should be
/// >   viewed as an absolute minimum).
///
/// # Recommended length
/// The recommended default length for a salt string is **16-bytes** (128-bits).
///
/// See [`Salt::RECOMMENDED_LENGTH`] for more information.
///
/// # Constraints
/// Salt strings are constrained to the following set of characters per the
/// PHC spec:
///
/// > The salt consists in a sequence of characters in: `[a-zA-Z0-9/+.-]`
/// > (lowercase letters, uppercase letters, digits, /, +, . and -).
///
/// Additionally the following length restrictions are enforced based on the
/// guidelines from the spec:
///
/// - Minimum length: **4**-bytes
/// - Maximum length: **64**-bytes
///
/// A maximum length is enforced based on the above recommendation for
/// supporting stack-allocated buffers (which this library uses), and the
/// specific determination of 64-bytes is taken as a best practice from the
/// [Argon2 Encoding][3] specification in the same document:
///
/// > The length in bytes of the salt is between 8 and 64 bytes<sup>†</sup>, thus
/// > yielding a length in characters between 11 and 64 characters (and that
/// > length is never equal to 1 modulo 4). The default byte length of the salt
/// > is 16 bytes (22 characters in B64 encoding). An encoded UUID, or a
/// > sequence of 16 bytes produced with a cryptographically strong PRNG, are
/// > appropriate salt values.
/// >
/// > <sup>†</sup>The Argon2 specification states that the salt can be much longer, up
/// > to 2^32-1 bytes, but this makes little sense for password hashing.
/// > Specifying a relatively small maximum length allows for parsing with a
/// > stack allocated buffer.)
///
/// Based on this guidance, this type enforces an upper bound of 64-bytes
/// as a reasonable maximum, and recommends using 16-bytes.
