Add support for ECDHE-ECDSA (RFC4492), which uses an ephemeral server
key pair to perform ECDH with ECDSA signatures. Like ECDHE-RSA,
ECDHE-ECDSA also provides PFS.

We still very much assume it in the code, but with this change in
place we can implement other things later without changing and users
of the package.
Fixes#2319.

The crypto package is added as a common place to store identifiers for
hash functions. At the moment, the rsa package has an enumeration of
hash functions and knowledge of their digest lengths. This is an
unfortunate coupling and other high level crypto packages tend to need
to duplicate this enumeration and knowledge (i.e. openpgp).
crypto pulls this code out into a common location.
It would also make sense to add similar support for ciphers to crypto,
but the problem there isn't as acute that isn't done in this change.
