Yeah, OpenSSL forces a bit our hand here I am afraid..

Agreed.

Okay. Let's be precise.

Hmm. I am not sure that this would help much, because we'd still need
to cast to the local structures in this case as the pg_shaXXX_ctx are
local to sha2.c, and we still need to keep some void* in
cryptohash.h.

So, you are referring here about using a new API in the abstraction
layer. This makes sense. What about naming that
pg_cryptohash_context_free(void *)?
