When allocating a crypto_digest_t, allocate no more bytes than needed
Previously we would allocate as many bytes as we'd need for a keccak--even when we were only calculating SHA1. Closes ticket 17796.

+ o Minor features (crypto):
+ - When allocating a digest state object, allocate no more space than we
+ actually need. Previously, we were allocating as much space as the
+ state for the largest algorithm would need. This change saves up to
+ 672 bytes per circuit. Closes ticket 17796.
