[PATCH v7 ima-evm-utils 2/2] make SHA-256 the default hash algorithm

[Bruno Meneguele <bmeneg@redhat.com>]

The SHA-1 algorithm is considered a weak hash algorithm and there has been
some movement within certain distros to drop its support completely or at
least drop it from the default behavior. ima-evm-utils uses it as the
default algorithm in case the user doesn't explicitly ask for another
through the --with-default-hash configuration time option or --hashalgo/-a
runtime option. With that, make SHA-256 the default hash algorithm instead.
