 DownloadBlind Indexing
A blind index is calculated by using hash functions and/or
key-stretching algorithms of the plaintext, using an appropriate key.
Blind indexes come in two modes (slow, fast). Both variants accept a
parameter called the "bit length", which affects the truncation length
of the resulting cryptographic output. Additionally, if truncated to a
bit length that is not an even multiple of 8, it will clear the least
significant bits in the trailing byte.

Fast: PBKDF2-SHA384 with 1 iteration
* Accepts three arguments:
1. The plaintext
2. The key for this blind index
3. The bit length
-
Slow: PBKDF2-SHA384 with a tunable number of iterations (default:
50,000).
* Accepts four arguments:
1. The plaintext
2. The key for this blind index
3. The bit length
4. An array of configuration options that can override the number of
iterations for this particular index.
