[PATCH] crypto/fsl: Fallback to SW sha1/256 is misaligned buffers

Problem:
With U-Boot 2021.10, we currently cannot load a fitImage on our imx7d
board, due to misaligned buffers.
Reason:
Commit 92055e138f28 ("image: Drop if/elseif hash selection in
calculate_hash()")
changed the way the FIT were verified. Previously, SW sha1/256 were always
used. Due to that commit, that can now be done in hardware.
caam_hash requires both the input, pbuf, and output buffer, pout, to be
aligned. E.g. for the kernel data, pbuf will be the data start address
for the kernel. The data start address is dependent on how the FIT is
constructed and what address the FIT is loaded to. I.e.; it is fairly
likely that we have a case of pbuf to not be aligned. pout is even more
likely to not be aligned since it is simply a stack variable declared in
fit_image_check_hash in common/image-fit.c.
So to rely upon both of these buffers to be aligned, makes errors fairly
likely.
Solution:
I wont propose copying the entire input buffer due to its size, so instead
just fallback to use the sw sha1/sha256 if buffers is misaligned.
