messages: avoid SHA-1 in end-user facing messages

There are still a handful mentions of SHA-1 when we meant the
(hexadecimal) object names in end-user facing messages.  Rewrite
them.

I was hoping that this can mostly be s/SHA-1/object name/, but
a few messages needed rephrasing to keep the result readable.
