Can Nettle compute the SHAKE128/SHAKE256 variant of SHA-3? What do you think about adding APIs for them?

I donn't have a really well informed opinion right now, but I think it would make sense. Not sure what which existing nettle functions one should look at for api inspiration, the plain hashes or the pbkdf2 functions.
What's the status of SHA3 standardization? When finished, we need to go over the current sha3 functions.
If you want to try implementing it, I hope it shouldn't be too difficult to do it on top of sha3_permute.
