This release deprecates the Digest adapter. The HTDigest format has historically used MD5, and current existing tooling for creating htdigest files continues to do so, even though the spec now supports SHA-256/512 (though the support is only still rolling out to modern browsers, and requires changes server-side to work). As such, we are deprecating the adapter, with planned removal in version 3.0.0.
