Is there any possibility to support SHA-512 alongside SHA-256? #5

Thanks for the project.
We have been using NetMQ Security in production without any issue for 3 years.

Currently, NetMQ Security only supports SHA-256 as per

/// <summary>
/// Class SHA256PRF is a secure hashing algorithm. It implements the interface <see cref="IPRF"/>
/// and uses the SHA256 hashing algorithm.
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// SHA-256 is a 256-bit hash and is meant to provide 128 bites of security against collision attacks.
/// SHA stands for Secure Hashing Algorithm, and is a type of PRF.
/// PRF stands for Pseudo-Random number generating Function, and <see cref="IPRF"/> is an interface that mandates the Get method.
/// </remarks>
public class SHA256PRF : IPRF
.
We are facing new security policies that mandate the use of SHA-512 as the latest SHA2 variant.

I am aware that the project has been inactive for a while, but still would like to put the question out there.

Is there any possibility to support SHA-512 alongside SHA-256?
