This function is only applicable for Hacknet Servers (the upgraded version of a Hacknet Node).
Spend the hashes generated by your Hacknet Servers on an upgrade. Returns a boolean value - true if the upgrade is successfully purchased, and false otherwise.
The name of the upgrade must be an exact match. The `upgTarget` argument is used for upgrades such as `Reduce Minimum Security`<!-- -->, which applies to a specific server. In this case, the `upgTarget` argument must be the hostname or IP of the server.
## Example
```js
// For upgrades where no target is required
ns.hacknet.spendHashes("Sell for Corporation Funds");
// For upgrades requiring a target
ns.hacknet.spendHashes("Increase Maximum Money", "foodnstuff");
```
