crypto: hash - Add import/export interface



It is often useful to save the partial state of a hash function
so that it can be used as a base for two or more computations.

The most prominent example is HMAC where all hashes start from
a base determined by the key.  Having an import/export interface
means that we only have to compute that base once rather than
for each message.
