[U-Boot] [PATCH v4] dfu: Introduction of the "dfu_hash_algo" env variable for checksum method setting

Up till now the CRC32 of received data was calculated unconditionally.
The standard crc32 implementation causes long delay when large images
were uploaded.

The "dfu_hash_algo" environment variable gives the opportunity to
disable on demand the hash (crc32) calculation.
It can be done without the need to recompile the u-boot binary.

By default the crc32 is calculated, which means that legacy behavior
has been preserved.

Tests results:
400 MiB ums.img file
With 		crc32 calculation: 65 sec [avg 6.29 MB/s]
Without 		crc32 calculation: 25 sec [avg 16.17 MB/s]

---
Changes for v2:
- Utilization of hash_block generic function to calculate CRC32 checksum
Changes for v3:
- Remove dependency on altering the lib/hash.c generic implementation
- Use of hash_update() function to calculate crc32 in the same way as
  it was done with crc32
Changes for v4:
- When dfu_hash_algo env is not defined, the crc32 is calculated
