crypto: testmgr - desupport SHA-1 for FIPS 140
The sunset period of SHA-1 is approaching [1] and FIPS 140 certificates have a validity of 5 years. Any distros starting FIPS certification for their kernels now would therefore most likely end up on the NIST Cryptographic Module Validation Program "historical" list before their certification expires. While SHA-1 is technically still allowed until Dec. 31, 2030, it is heavily discouraged by NIST and it makes sense to set .fips_allowed to 0 now for any crypto algorithms that reference it in order to avoid any costly surprises down the line.
