New description:

 I am trying to upgrade from django32 to 42 and facing an issue in
 https://github.com/django/django/blob/3.2/django/core/signing.py#L124

 in django32 it is like this

 # RemovedInDjango40Warning.
  legacy_algorithm = 'sha1'

 and in __init__ method it picks the value like this
 `self.algorithm = algorithm or settings.DEFAULT_HASHING_ALGORITHM`

 In django42
 https://github.com/django/django/blob/4.2.4/django/core/signing.py#L204

 algorithm getting value like this

 self.algorithm = algorithm or "sha256" ( its a hardcoded value and can be
 pick via settings)

 So here is my code I am using dump method to `signing.dumps(data_to_sign,
 salt=self.key_salt)` and it furthers call the `TimestampSigner` So I am
 not able to find any way to pass the `sha1` which is my current prod
 setting.

 Last option for me is to override the class.

 since `DEFAULT_HASHING_ALGORITHM` is removed. So may be pass param from
 dumps.
