[PATCH v3 0/2] help: include SHA build options in version info

Greetings,

Additional information regarding how Git was built can be found via the `--build-options` flag for git-version(1). This currently does not include information about the SHA-1 and SHA-256 implementations Git is built with.

This short series adds build option info for the SHA-1, SHA-256, and non-crypto-SHA-1 (if any) implementations which may be useful for diagnostic purposes

Changes since V2:

  - Updates to documentation to provide additional context.

  - Inlined `get_sha_impl()` function.

Changes since V1:

  - Each SHA backend is expected to define either `SHA1_BACKEND`,
    `SHA1_UNSAFE_BACKEND`, or `SHA256_BACKEND` as appropriate.
    These symbols are then used to print the SHA build options in
    the additional version info.

  - The names of the build options are used instead of
    human-readable names.

  - Appended "(No collision detection)" to warn about SHA1
    backends without collision detection.

  - Renamed "unsafe-SHA-1" to "non-crypto-SHA-1" in the printed
    build options.

  - Small updates to documentation.

Thanks, -Justin
