Examples
hashgen md5 "hello world" # → MD5: 5eb63bbbe01...
hashgen sha256 "my secret" # → SHA256: 40e1b17...
hashgen all "test" # → shows MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512
hashgen file /etc/hostname # → SHA256 of file
hashgen file /etc/hostname md5 # → MD5 of file
hashgen compare abc123 abc123 # → ✅ MATCH
hashgen verify "hello" 5d41... # → auto-detects algo, verifies
