Since the format is changing from the SHA-1 log format anyway ... How do people feel about the colon and null terminated string format for algorithm identifiers? The TCG standard enumerations are uint16_t, and there is a registry of hash algorithms. As a consuming parser, it feels nice to know it's always 2 bytes and not have to worry about a missing colon or a missing nul terminator risking a buffer overflow.
