hash: provide per-algorithm null OIDs

Up until recently, object IDs did not have an algorithm member, only a
hash.  Consequently, it was possible to share one null (all-zeros)
object ID among all hash algorithms.  Now that we're going to be
handling objects from multiple hash algorithms, it's important to make
sure that all object IDs have a correct algorithm field.

Introduce a per-algorithm null OID, and add it to struct hash_algo.
Introduce a wrapper function as well, and use it everywhere we used to
use the null_oid constant.
