md5enc is literally waiting to become "hashenc":

static const AVOption hash_options[] = {
    { "hash", "set hash to use", OFFSET(hash_name), AV_OPT_TYPE_STRING, {.str = "md5"}, 0, 0, ENC },
    { "format_version", "file format version", OFFSET(format_version), AV_OPT_TYPE_INT, {.i64 = 1}, 1, 1, ENC },
    { NULL },
};
