Better reference for SHA-1
It's getting a bit late, but I discovered yesterday that there's actually
an RFC for SHA-1, so the references in [SSH-TRANS] to [FIPS-180-2] can be
changed to refer to RFC 3174.
Aside: This has the interesting consequence that it gives us KEX
(diffie-hellman-group14-sha1), host-key (ssh-rsa), MAC (hmac-sha1), and
cipher (cast128-cbc) algorithms which are specified entirely by RFCs.
It's a pity they're not all the required ones, really. No, that's NOT a
suggestion that the requirements be changed.
