The documentation of `SipHasher` previously linked to a page about SipHash on https://131002.net, a domain registered to Jean-Philippe Aumasson, one of the co-authors of the original SipHash paper (alongside Daniel J Bernstein). That domain now redirects to another of Mr Aumasson's domains, https://www.aumasson.jp, but which does not host a similar page dedicated to SipHash. Instead, his site links to a GitHub repository containing a C implementation together with links to the original research paper. Mr Bernstein's own site, https://cr.yp.to, only hosts a copy of the research paper. Therefore the GitHub repository appears to be the most official and complete reference to which we can link.
