`gcry_md_open' allocates memory and must (like all allocation
functions) be checked for failure.

`gcry_md_open' needs to be paired with `gcry_md_close' to ensure
resources are released. Since our internal APIs don't have
separate close/release callbacks, sticking it into the finalization
callback seems appropriate.
Building with SANITIZE=leak and running `git fsck' on a SHA-256
repository no longer reports leaks.

Non-static functions cause `undefined reference' errors when
building with `SANITIZE=leak' due to the lack of prototypes.
Mark all these functions as `static inline' as we do in
sha256/nettle.h to avoid the need to maintain prototypes.

For all of our SHA-1 implementations and most of our SHA-256
implementations, the hash context we use is a real struct. For these
implementations, it's possible to copy a hash context by making a copy
of the struct.
However, for our libgcrypt implementation, our hash context is a
pointer. Consequently, copying it does not lead to an independent hash
context like we intended.
Fortunately, however, libgcrypt provides us with a handy function to
copy hash contexts. Let's add a cloning function to the hash algorithm
API, and use it in the one place we need to make a hash context copy.
With this change, our libgcrypt SHA-256 implementation is fully
functional with all of our other hash implementations.

Generally, one gets better performance out of cryptographic routines
written in assembly than C, and this is also true for SHA-256. In
addition, most Linux distributions cannot distribute Git linked against
OpenSSL for licensing reasons.
Most systems with GnuPG will also have libgcrypt, since it is a
dependency of GnuPG. libgcrypt is also faster than the SHA1DC
implementation for messages of a few KiB and larger.
For comparison, on a Core i7-6600U, this implementation processes 16 KiB
chunks at 355 MiB/s while SHA1DC processes equivalent chunks at 337
MiB/s.
In addition, libgcrypt is licensed under the LGPL 2.1, which is
compatible with the GPL. Add an implementation of SHA-256 that uses
libgcrypt.
