Refactor sha1 and time-limited code (#31023)

Remove "EncodeSha1", it shouldn't be used as a general purpose hasher
(just like we have removed "EncodeMD5" in #28622)

Rewrite the "time-limited code" related code and write better tests, the
old code doesn't seem quite right.

(cherry picked from commit fb1ad920b769799aa1287441289d15477d9878c5)

Conflicts:
	modules/git/utils_test.go
	trivial context conflict because sha256 testing in Forgejo has diverged
