Overall, I'm +1 on the idea and think the patch looks good.  There are two 
issues to look at:

1) Neither the md5 or shasum command-line tools offer control over the 
blocksize.  I suggest that option be dropped from the command-line API giving a 
nice simplification and usability improvement.

The stdin option has issues:

$ md5
abc

$ python3.6 -m hashlib md5
abc
