Originally it was framecrc (using AVAdler) and framemd5 (using AVMD5). 
The latter was renamed/aliased to framehash and made to use the AVHash 
API, which supports all lavu hashing algorithms, and is versioned.
If anyone cared, framecrc could be also made into an alias of framehash 
that defaults to adler32 output, but it would result in a massive change 
to reference files, if anything because AVHash initializes adler32 with 
a 1 whereas framecrc does it with a 0.
