Document existing SHA-1 collision attack
README indicates that there is not publicly documented collision attack, but as of yesterday that is no longer true.

## Command-line usage
There are two programs `bin/sha1dc` and `bin/sha1dc_partialcoll`.
-The first program `bin/sha1dc` will detect and warn for files that were generated with a cryptanalytic SHA-1 collision attack (of which there are no public examples so far).
+The first program `bin/sha1dc` will detect and warn for files that were generated with a cryptanalytic SHA-1 collision attack like the one documented at https://shattered.io/.
The second program `bin/sha1dc_partialcoll` will detect and warn for files that were generated with a cryptanalytic collision attack against reduced-round SHA-1 (of which there are a few examples so far).
