[PATCH v2 2/2] sha1dc: Allow building with the external sha1dc library

Some distros provide SHA1 collision-detect code as a shared library. It's the same code as we have in git tree (but may be with a different init default for hash), and git can link with it as well; at least, it may make maintenance easier, according to our security guys.

This patch allows user to build git linking with the external sha1dc library instead of the built-in code. User needs to define DC_SHA1_EXTERNAL explicitly. As default without it, the built-in sha1dc code is used like before.
