Description

There were two important changes in the upstream argon2-cffi library since Django 1.10 was released with Argon2 support:

  1. (Nov 10, 2016) argon2id support was added: https://github.com/hynek/argon2_cffi/commit/00120a9880a74a5aedb13ee343bf6ccd507bb2d8#diff-1efe26b4b54ac28232eaecb9107ee6ed
  2. (Apr 9, 2018) argon2id became its default type: https://github.com/hynek/argon2_cffi/pull/34/files

When Django 1.10 was released, only argon2d and argon2i were available, hence the hard-coded argon2i variety in Argon2PasswordHasher.
