Hash: SHA1
A couple of questions. First, in hash-pjw.c, should we be using unsigned
char instead of char to iterate through the NUL-terminated string?
Second, would it be worth adding a case-insensitive version of hash_pjw,
so that strings can be hashed to the same value regardless of their case?
It only makes sense for single-byte locales, but that's all the more that
hash_pjw accommodates at the moment.
