The `compute hashsum` subcommand was [deprecated] in version v10.1.0, on 2023-05-18. It was made a hidden option, and invoking it evoked the warning "This command is deprecated. Use `fastly compute hash-files` instead.". It has also been removed from the [reference documentation]. We're now at v13, in 2026, and a reasonable amount of time has passed, so I propose we remove the option now.

User Impact
An option that has been hidden, undocumented, and that issues a deprecation warning, for about 2.5 years and 3 major releases, is removed.
Users that still need to compute the hash value that
fastly compute hashsumcomputed can do so using commonly-available tools, such as thesha512sumcommand in coreutils, theshasum -a 512command on macOS, or theopenssl sha512command.
