Frank Denis 9060457fac Make prompt_input accept fixed-length and variable-length input.
Now that strings have the correct size, but no trailing \0, puts() cannot safely be
used any more.

/*
* This function computes a fixed-length fingerprint for an arbitrary long message.
*
* Sample use cases:
*
* File integrity checking
* Creating unique identifiers to index arbitrary long data
*
* The crypto_generichash() function puts a fingerprint of the
* message in whose length is inlen bytes into out. The output size
* can be chosen by the application.
*
* The minimum recommended output size is crypto_generichash_BYTES.
* This size makes it practically impossible for two messages to
* produce the same fingerprint.
*
* But for specific use cases, the size can be any value between
* crypto_generichash_BYTES_MIN (included) and
* crypto_generichash_BYTES_MAX (included).
*
* key can be NULL and keylen can be 0. In this case, a message will
* always have the same fingerprint, similar to the MD5 or SHA-1
* functions for which crypto_generichash() is a faster and more
* secure alternative.
*
* But a key can also be specified. A message will always have the
* same fingerprint for a given key, but different keys used to hash
* the same message are very likely to produce distinct fingerprints.
*
* In particular, the key can be used to make sure that different
* applications generate different fingerprints even if they process
* the same data.
*
* The recommended key size is crypto_generichash_KEYBYTES bytes.
*
* However, the key size can by any value between
* crypto_generichash_KEYBYTES_MIN (included) and
* crypto_generichash_KEYBYTES_MAX (included).
