We follow the PHC hashing format https://github.com/P-H-C/phc-string-format/blob/master/phc-sf-spec.md and adding $argon2 is part of the standard.

The main goal of the standard is to allow upgrading old password hash when you change the config at a later stage and hence it appends some meta-data to each password
