This should be more performant while still being FIPS compliant (see #12722).

sha1 isn't as secure as sha256, but since the usage context is just "has this file changed? 🤔", this should be an acceptable degredation.

I'm not very attached or convinced by this PR, but I don't also see how it can necessarily be harmful? I trust your judgement on the merge-ability of this.
It wasn't significantly impactful on performance for me, but it seemed like in general it should be a better fit.

From jshttp/etag#17 (comment), is sha1 gonna be denied soon?

Hmm, that's fair, though I'm not aware of the approximate time frame before FIPS indeed excludes sha1. Of course, for our purposes, we aren't interested in the security properties of our hashing algorithm - though FIPS environments don't know that.

Perhaps the alternate move is to expose this as a configuration option? Allow choosing between md5 and sha256?

I'm fine with landing this. If it breaks FIPS, then we'll change in the future. Up until we can actually run tests in FIPS systems, regressions are bound to sneak in. But in this case it should be supported just fine (in som potential future it'll be unsupported, but no reason to deal with that now)

CI is failing, tho 🙂

The only failure here seems to be the same (packages/jest-diff/src/__tests__/joinAlignedDiffs.test.ts) as this landed PR, so I think I'm green.
