fsverity: use shash API instead of ahash API
The "ahash" API, like the other scatterlist-based crypto APIs such as
"skcipher", comes with some well-known limitations. First, it can't
easily be used with vmalloc addresses. Second, the request struct can't
be allocated on the stack. This adds complexity and a possible failure
point that needs to be worked around, e.g. using a mempool.
The only benefit of ahash over "shash" is that ahash is needed to access
traditional memory-to-memory crypto accelerators, i.e. drivers/crypto/.
However, this style of crypto acceleration has largely fallen out of
favor and been superseded by CPU-based acceleration or inline crypto
engines. Also, ahash needs to be used asynchronously to take full
advantage of such hardware, but fs/verity/ has never done this.
On all systems that aren't actually using one of these ahash-only crypto
accelerators, ahash just adds unnecessary overhead as it sits between
the user and the underlying shash algorithms.
Also, XFS is planned to cache fsverity Merkle tree blocks in the
existing XFS buffer cache. As a result, it will be possible for a
single Merkle tree block to be split across discontiguous pages
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230405233753.GU3223426@dread.disaster.area).
This data will need to be hashed. It is easiest to work with a vmapped
address in this case. However, ahash is incompatible with this.
Therefore, let's convert fs/verity/ from ahash to shash. This
simplifies the code, and it should also slightly improve performance for
everyone who wasn't actually using one of these ahash-only crypto
accelerators, i.e. almost everyone (or maybe even everyone)!

fsverity: improve documentation for builtin signature support
fsverity builtin signatures (CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES) aren't
the only way to do signatures with fsverity, and they have some major
limitations. Yet, more users have tried to use them, e.g. recently by
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2640. In most cases this seems
to be because users aren't sufficiently familiar with the limitations of
this feature and what the alternatives are.
Therefore, make some updates to the documentation to try to clarify the
properties of this feature and nudge users in the right direction.
Note that the Integrity Policy Enforcement (IPE) LSM, which is not yet
upstream, is planned to use the builtin signatures. (This differs from
IMA, which uses its own signature mechanism.) For that reason, my
earlier patch "fsverity: mark builtin signatures as deprecated"
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221208033548.122704-1-ebiggers@kernel.org),
which marked builtin signatures as "deprecated", was controversial.
This patch therefore stops short of marking the feature as deprecated.
I've also revised the language to focus on better explaining the feature
and what its alternatives are.
