Enhanced Hashing Interop fix (without compatibility methods in 3.5)

v4.0.0 (breaking changes) - A bug in Enhanced Hashing was discovered that causes the hashes created to be inoperable between different languages.
V4 provides the fix for this as well as adding test vectors from PHP and Python to ensure the issue remains fixed in the future. V4 also removes the legacy 384 option that came before Base64 was added.

Enhanced Hashing Compatibility Migration Release

v3.5.0 - A bug in Enhanced Hashing was discovered that causes the hashes created to be inoperable between different languages.
As part of the fix 3.5 release contains the ability to Verify and HashPassword were given an additional v4CompatibleEnhancedEntropy parameter.
This allows the user to verify their Enhanced hash as normal; then re-hash + store using V4. This functionality is purely to allow migration and is removed in V4.

Performance (heap reduction) for netcore and removal of regex

Performance (heap reduction) and removal of regex

• Heap-usage reduction in netstandard 2+ by switching key calls to span and altering array use in encoding.
• Removes regex dependency and changes hash parser to custom parser
• Addition of benchmarking projects
• Adds dependency on System.Memory for netstandard2.0|net452|net462|net472

Big thanks to Jos Vandertil (@jvandertil) for the help.
