Hi,

After the suggestions of Tim, I changed the patch description. So, scratch the 
previous patch and use this one instead.

I also added support for sha-224 to the Metalink module.

There are two patches attached, the second one adds support for the deprecated 
md2 and md4, since they are insecure I prefer to keep the patch separated from 
the main one.

Do you think it's right to enable md2 and md4? Let me know.
