[PATCH 1/2 v2] efi_loader: correctly handle mixed hashes and signatures in db

A mix of signatures and hashes in db doesn't always work as intended.
Currently if the digest algorithm is not explicitly set to sha256 we
stop walking the security database and reject the image.

That's problematic in case we find and try to check a signature before
inspecting the sha256 hash.  If the image is unsigned we will reject it
even if the digest matches.

Since we no longer reject the image on unknown algorithms add an explicit
check and reject the image if any other hash algorithm apart from sha256
is detected on dbx.

Changes since v1:
- reject an image if an unknown sha digest type is present in dbx
- Added a second patch fixing an existing issue causing the image sha256
  caclulation to run more than once
