Sets a salt to be used by the {@link HashService} during hash computation.
<p/>
This is a convenience alternative to {@link #setSalt(ByteSource)}: it will attempt to convert the
argument into a {@link ByteSource} instance using Shiro's default conversion heuristics
(as defined by {@link ByteSourceUtil#isCompatible(Object) ByteSourceUtil.isCompatible}. If the object
cannot be heuristically converted to a {@code ByteSource}, an {@code IllegalArgumentException} will be
thrown.
@param salt a salt to be used by the {@link HashService} during hash computation.
@return this {@code Builder} instance for method chaining.
@throws IllegalArgumentException if the argument cannot be heuristically converted to a {@link ByteSource}
instance.
