SHA1. They will now sign with an algorithm that corresponds to the security
level of the signer's key.
+** libgnutls: Removed the camellia (GCM and CBC) ciphersuites from the default priority sets.
+ There are already the AES-CCM and CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites as AES-GCM backup,
+ and the camellia ciphersuites are not widespread to justify keeping them.
+ That way we reduce the number of the ciphersuites sent, which also allows connections
+ to few broken servers which require a low number of ciphersuites.

** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_*_sign2() functions and gnutls_x509_*_privkey_sign()
accept GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN (0) as a hash function option. That will signal
the function to auto-detect an appropriate hash algorithm to use.
