        * Algorithm taken from of TLS specification RFC 2246 - 5.HMAC and the pseudorandom function

        *           P_hash(secret, seed) = HMAC_hash(secret, A(1) + seed) +

        *               Where + indicates concatenation.

        *               A() is defined as:
        *                   A(0) = seed
        *                   A(i) = HMAC_hash(secret, A(i-1))
        *
        *       P_hash can be iterated as many times as is necessary to produce the
        *       required quantity of data. For example, if P_SHA-1 was being used to
        *       create 64 bytes of data, it would have to be iterated 4 times
        *       (through A(4)), creating 80 bytes of output data; the last 16 bytes
        *       of the final iteration would then be discarded, leaving 64 bytes of
        *       output data.
