certificate: Use SHA256 fingerprints instead of SHA1

This meant adding a get_fingerprint_sha256 function to the certificate scheme
structs, which meant adding a struct_size member because we ran out of reserved
members there.

The API-facing purple_certificate_get_fingerprint_sha256() has a fallback
parameter to use sha1 if the SSL plugin doesn't implement this function
(probably an outdated installation, or a third party SSL plugin). When using
the function for display purposes, the fallback is disabled and it returns
NULL, but when using it to compare certificates it's better to have at least
the SHA1.

In functions like purple_certificate_display_x509(), some slight changes to
translatable strings would have been required. Since we're in a string freeze
right now, I avoided those by concatenating a language-neutral "SHA256: %s" at
the end of those messages. The SHA1 line used the word "fingerprint" but we
can't reuse that translation. This should be cleaned up after the release.

/*
This example demonstrates how to use libpurple-client to communicate
with purple. The names and signatures of functions provided by
libpurple-client are the same as those in purple. However, all
structures (such as PurpleAccount) are opaque, that is, you can only
use pointer to them. In fact, these pointers DO NOT actually point
to anything, they are just integer identifiers of assigned to these
structures by purple. So NEVER try to dereference these pointers.
Integer ids as disguised as pointers to provide type checking and
prevent mistakes such as passing an id of PurpleAccount when an id of
PurpleBuddy is expected. According to glib manual, this technique is
portable.
