[SCRAM] SCRAM-SHA-1-PLUS + SCRAM-SHA-256(-PLUS) + SCRAM-SHA-512(-PLUS) supports

[Neustradamus]

To have compatibility with XMPP Servers and after:

• SCRAM-SHA-1

Can you add supports of :

• SCRAM-SHA-1-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA-224
• SCRAM-SHA-224-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA-256
• SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA-384
• SCRAM-SHA-384-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA-512
• SCRAM-SHA-512-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA3-512
• SCRAM-SHA3-512-PLUS

"When using the SASL SCRAM mechanism, the SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS variant SHOULD be preferred over the SCRAM-SHA-256 variant, and SHA-256 variants [RFC7677] SHOULD be preferred over SHA-1 variants [RFC5802]".

• SCRAM-SHA-1(-PLUS): -- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5802 -- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6120

• SCRAM-SHA-256(-PLUS): -- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7677 since 2015-11-02 -- https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8600 since 2019-06-21: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/suJMmeMhuAOmGn_PJYgX5Vm8lNA

• SCRAM-SHA-512(-PLUS): -- https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-melnikov-scram-sha-512

• SCRAM-SHA3-512(-PLUS): -- https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-melnikov-scram-sha3-512

Note, after SCRAM-SHA-1(-PLUS):

• GNU SASL (gsasl) supports SCRAM-SHA-256(-PLUS) since 1.9.1: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gsasl.git;a=blob;f=NEWS;hb=HEAD I have informed about missing informations in website/manual/docs.
• Dovecot supports SCRAM-SHA-256(-PLUS) since 2.3.10: https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/authentication_mechanisms/
• Cyrus SASL/IMAP supports SCRAM-SHA-256(-PLUS) and more since 2.1.27: https://www.cyrusimap.org/sasl/sasl/authentication_mechanisms.html
