Research direction
Start by examining the blake2 crate and its current simd feature usage, then compare the intended coresimd approach with the Rust 1.27 SIMD stabilization. Done means porting blake2 to coresimd and removing the simd feature without changing its hashing behavior.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
With stabilization of SIMD intrinsics in Rust 1.27 we can remove simd feature from the blake2 crate.
