Support SRI hashes
SRI hashes (https://www.w3.org/TR/SRI/) combine the hash algorithm and
a base-64 hash. This allows more concise and standard hash
specifications. For example, instead of

  import <nix/fetchurl.nl> {
    url = https://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-2.1.3/nix-2.1.3.tar.xz;
    sha256 = "5d22dad058d5c800d65a115f919da22938c50dd6ba98c5e3a183172d149840a4";
  };

you can write

  import <nix/fetchurl.nl> {
    url = https://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-2.1.3/nix-2.1.3.tar.xz;
    hash = "sha256-XSLa0FjVyADWWhFfkZ2iKTjFDda6mMXjoYMXLRSYQKQ=";
  };

In fixed-output derivations, the outputHashAlgo is no longer mandatory
if outputHash specifies the hash (either as an SRI or in the old
"<type>:<hash>" format).

'nix hash-{file,path}' now print hashes in SRI format by default. I
also reverted them to use SHA-256 by default because that's what we're
using most of the time in Nixpkgs.
