Merge branch 'master' into api-to-backend-in-one-easy-step
* master:
Make use of currentmodule to maybe reduce redundant module definitions and also get source links.
Enable the new read the docs theme, it's pretty.
use is for identical object comparison
add gcm constants and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl macro
md5 is 128-bit. The person responsible for this mistake has been shot
add test to verify api is being copied in hash
When copying a hash, pass the api through to the new object
