mingw: use OpenSSL's SHA-1 routines
Use OpenSSL's SHA-1 routines rather than builtin block-sha1 routines.
This improves performance on SHA1 operations on Intel processors.
OpenSSL 1.0.2 has made considerable performance improvements and
support the Intel hardware acceleration features. See:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/improving-openssl-performance
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-sha-extensions
To test this I added/staged a single file in a gigantic
repository having a 450MB index file. The code in read-cache.c
verifies the header SHA as it reads the index and computes a new
header SHA as it writes out the new index. Therefore, in this test
the SHA code must process 900MB of data. Testing was done on an
Intel I7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz (Intel64, Family 6, Model 60) CPU.
The block-sha1 version averaged 5.27 seconds.
The OpenSSL version averaged 4.50 seconds.
