    [SECURITY] Protect persisted session IDs from being used directly · 13964141

    Instead of storing session IDs with their corresponding storage
    backends in plain text, their HMAC-SHA256 (Redis) or HMAC-MD5 (DB)
    is being used. HMAC-MD5 had to be chosen to avoid breaking changes
    for limited field size in database fields (32 characters currently).
    
    This change also allows a fallback to non-hashed-session values,
    meaning that
    * set() and update() will create new session records with the hashed
      identifier
    * get() contains a fallback to the non-hashed-version when no session
      with a hashed identifier is found
