Initial implementation with shani accelerates sha256 to 18% of canonical algorithm and 19% of vectorized optimizations. IOW the current hashing code takes 5.5x more time than this new code on machines with shani. This will also accelerate the 1/2/3 lane hashing for merkle roots. This should dramatically lower CPU utilization on the mini.
