Release the GVL in the following methods:

  • OpenSSL::KDF.pbkdf2_hmac
  • OpenSSL::KDF.scrypt

PBKDF2 is a password hashing function that runs single-threaded and is
typically configured to take several hundred milliseconds.
scrypt is another password hashing algorithm, so releasing the GVL is
useful.
