[ima-evm-utils PATCH v2 00/13] Address non concurrency-safe libimaevm global variables

The libimaevm global variables are not concurrency-safe. Instead of
relying on global variables, define new functions with these variables
as parameters, update static functions definitions with these variables,
and deprecate existing functions. The change is limited to public keys,
hash algorithm, and key password.

To avoid library incompatability, make the existing functions wrappers
for the new function versions and deprecate existing functions.

Changelog v2:
Addressed Stefan Berger's comments:
- Prefix the new library functions to avoid namespace pollution.
- Define internal library function 'public_keys' as struct
public_key_entry, not void.
- Prefix new static global variables with 'g_'.
- Annotate deprecated functions with "__attribute__(deprecated)".
- init_public_keys() function was defined as void. The new
imaevm_init_public_keys() function is defined as an int. Check the
return value.
- Update sign_{ima,evm} function definitions to include the hash
algorithm as a paramater.
- Added Stefan's "Reviewed-by" tag.

Mimi Zohar (13):

Define library ima_calc_hash2() function with a hash algorithm
parameter
Use a local hash algorithm variable when verifying file signatures
