repository: add a compatibility hash algorithm

Browse Source 
We currently have support for using a full stage 4 SHA-256
implementation.  However, we'd like to support interoperability with
SHA-1 repositories as well.  The transition plan anticipates a
compatibility hash algorithm configuration option that we can use to
implement support for this.  Let's add an element to the repository
structure that indicates the compatibility hash algorithm so we can use
it when we need to consider interoperability between algorithms.

Add a helper function repo_set_compat_hash_algo that takes a
compatibility hash algorithm and sets "repo->compat_hash_algo".  If
GIT_HASH_UNKNOWN is passed as the compatibility hash algorithm
"repo->compat_hash_algo" is set to NULL.

For now, the code results in "repo->compat_hash_algo" always being set
to NULL, but that will change once a configuration option is added.
