[Support] Optimize SHA1 implementation

* Add inline to the helper functions because gcc-9 won't inline all of
  them without the hint. I've avoided `__attribute__((always_inline))`
  because gcc and clang will inline without it, and improves
  compatibility.
* Replace the byte-by-byte copy in update() with endian::readbe32()
  since perf reports that 1/2 of the time is spent copying into the
  buffer before this patch.

When lld uses --build-id=sha1 it spends 30-45% of CPU in SHA1 depending on the binary (not wall-time since it is parallel). This patch speeds up SHA1 by a factor of 2 on clang-8 and 3 on gcc-6. This leads to a >10% improvement in overall linking time.

lld-speed-test benchmarks run on an Intel i9-9900k with Turbo disabled on CPU 0 compiled with clang-9. Stats recorded with `perf stat -r 5`. All inputs are using `--build-id=sha1`.
