Add a one-shot SHA-224 computation function sha224(), for consistency with sha256(), sha384(), and sha512() which all already exist. Similarly, add sha224_update(). While for now it's identical to sha256_update(), omitting it makes the API harder to use since users have to "know" which functions are the same between SHA-224 and SHA-256. Also, this is a prerequisite for using different context types for each.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
