if a user does not decide to use a dedicated cache store for their password resets, there's a risk of collision/overwriting of the cache keys in the default cache store, since we are just using the user's email. this allows the user to set an optional config value to use a prefix on the cache key.

Would it not be a bit easier to just put them in the cache as something like |

having some low-collision chance default seems fine to me |

this is mostly a rollback of laravel#53448 per Taylor's request. rather than allowing an optional prefix, we'll use a deterministic hash of the user's email for our cache key. this should make the chance of a collision if no dedicated store is used statistically insignificant. I've also opted to extract out a `makeCacheKey()` method here mainly to reduce the duplicated code and help prevent bugs from divergence. however, this could possibly help userland override the cache key generation. maybe I'm overthinking that, maybe it's honestly not a problem.

I left the default blank to start, but we could also choose to come up with some default string.
the other option to this PR is to force people to use a dedicated cache store, which I think we should at least strongly encourage for other reasons as well.
