[RFC PATCH 01/22] hex: introduce parsing variants taking hash algorithms

From

Message-ID
<20200113124729.3684846-2-sandals@crustytoothpaste.net>
In-Reply-To
<20200113124729.3684846-1-sandals@crustytoothpaste.net>

Introduce variants of get_oid_hex and parse_oid_hex that parse an arbitrary hash algorithm, implementing internal functions to avoid duplication. These functions can be used in the transport code to parse refs properly.
