This implements AlgorithmIdentifier according to RFC5754 section 2

Depends on RustCrypto/traits#1575

This implements `AlgorithmIdentifier` according to [RFC5754 section 2]

From the RFC:

   The AlgorithmIdentifier parameters field is OPTIONAL.
   Implementations MUST accept SHA2 AlgorithmIdentifiers with absent
   parameters.  Implementations MUST accept SHA2 AlgorithmIdentifiers
   with NULL parameters.  Implementations MUST generate SHA2
   AlgorithmIdentifiers with absent parameters.

This implementation generates AlgorithmIdentifier with parameters absent, but it would be nice if we could also provide a PartialEq that accepted NULL parameters.

(same situation exists in https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3370#section-2.1 for Sha1)
