Technically passing down the `hash_algo` to both functions is not
enough to remove the dependency, as replacing `hash_to_hex()` with
`hash_to_hex_algop*()` is also needed. It's a bit unclear if
`hash_to_hex()` calls are replaced with other calls in this patch or
not though.

So you might want to add something like: "Replacing `hash_to_hex` with
functions that take an `hash_algo` as argument will be done in a
followup commit."
