// Password hashing and verification utilities
// - Uses bcrypt for secure password hashing
// - Provides hashPassword(plain) and verifyPassword(plain, hash) functions
// - hashPassword returns a promise that resolves to the hashed password
// - verifyPassword returns a promise that resolves to true/false
// - Uses 10 salt rounds for hashing
// - Assumes bcrypt package is installed
// - Suitable for user authentication systems
// - Can be used in user registration and login flows
