BCryptSwift v2.0.0

🎉 Major Security & Modernization Update

This release brings significant security improvements and modernizes the codebase for Swift 5+.

🔐 Security Enhancements

• Secure Random Generation: Replaced arc4random() with SecRandomCopyBytes for cryptographically secure random number
  generation
• Memory Security: Implemented secure memory cleanup for sensitive data
• Timing Attack Protection: Added constant-time string comparison to prevent timing-based attacks
• Input Validation: Enhanced validation for malicious inputs and edge cases

🚀 New Features

• Modern Swift API: New error-throwing API with proper Result types
• Async/Await Support: Added async methods for iOS 13+/macOS 10.15+
• Configuration Options: Flexible configuration with predefined security levels
• Swift Package Manager: Full SPM support alongside CocoaPods
• Comprehensive Test Suite: Added security-focused tests and edge case coverage

💻 API Improvements

// New modern API
let salt = try BCryptSwiftModern.generateSalt()
let hash = try BCryptSwiftModern.hashPassword("password", withSalt: salt)
let isValid = try BCryptSwiftModern.verifyPassword("password", matchesHash: hash)

// Async support
let hash = try await BCryptSwiftModern.hashPasswordAsync("password")

🔄 Backward Compatibility

The legacy API remains fully compatible - existing code will continue to work without changes.
