----------------------------

Note that the same approach could be used with HmacUtils

> DigestUtils is starting to get a bit unwieldy with so many similar static methods.
> One approach would be to use a Fluent approach (method chaining).
> e.g. DigestUtils.MDA("My-Digest").digestHex(File f);
> There would only need to be digest,digestHex and update instance methods for the different input types, currently byte, ByteBuffer, InputStream, File.
> Whereas at present these are repeated for each digest type.
