This PR adds a dynamic function return type extension for both
hash_hmacandhash_hmac_fileas both functions can returnfalsein certain circumstances. For both functions this means providing an invalid algorithm as first parameter will statically return false, otherwisestringforhash_hmacandstring|falseforhash_hmac_file(we can't check for file readability in static analysis, and you should always check for file errors anyway).There has been a PR more than 1.5 years ago that tried to fix this within static functions map but that would lead to far more false positives.
