Algorithms

Algorithm can be defined in 3 ways:

1. By pool, using algorithm negotiation, in this case no need specify algorithm on miner side.
2. Per pool coin option, currently only usable values for this option is monero, arqma and dero.
3. Per pool algo option.

Option coin useful for pools without algorithm negotiation support or daemon to allow automatically switch algorithm in next hard fork. If you use xmrig-proxy don't need specify algorithm on miner side.
