GustedandGitHub 356c5055ad lib/sha256: Remove it (#9643)
### Purpose

Remove the `lib/sha256` package, because it's no longer necessary. Go's
standard library now has the same performance and is on par with
`sha256-simd` since [Since Go
1.21](https://github.com/golang/go/commit/1a64574f42b95594cf9c8a12e9ca13d75585429c).
Therefore using `sha256-simd` has no benefits anymore.

ARM already has optimized sha256 assembly code since
https://github.com/golang/go/commit/7b8a7f8272fd1941a199af1adb334bd9996e8909,
`sha256-simd` published their results before that optimized assembly was
implemented,
https://github.com/minio/sha256-simd/commit/f941fedda826b68a196de2e0a9183e273ec0cb91.
The assembly looks very similar and the benchmarks in the Go commit
match that of `sha256-simd`.

This patch removes all of the related code of `lib/sha256` and makes
`crypto/sha256` the 'default'.

Benchmark of `sha256-simd` and `crypto/sha256`:

ThomasandGitHub aa559bf496 all: Use Linux container CPU quota (fixes #9357, fixes #9435) (#9436)
Go is not cgroup aware and by default will set GOMAXPROCS to the number
of available threads, regardless of whether it is within the allocated
quota. This behaviour causes high amount of CPU throttling and degraded
application performance.

Jakob BorgandGitHub f4372710bf all: Remove crypto/md5 (#7493)
This is a mostly pointless change to make security scanners and static
analysis tools happy, as they all hate seeing md5. None of our md5 uses
were security relevant, but still. Only visible effect of this change is
that our temp file names for very long file names become slightly longer
than they were previously...
