[PATCH 1/1] document all hash algorithms available for key fingerprint display

[Jakub Jelen]

I filled bug [1] on the same topic yesterday with different approach. I 
don't think the intention was to provide all hashing algorithms for 
fingerprints, but to slowly obsolete md5, replacing by sha256.

But the final decision and clarification what was the real intention 
depends again on developers.
