Should svn_hash_(read|write) accept streams?

ghudson, sussman, and I were talking on IRC about how great it would
be if svn_hash_(read|write) would accept svn_stream_t's. Then the
equivalent code could be factorized out of the dumpfile loader, and
re-used in the fs_fs code as well. The existing API could be
trivially obtained by using svn_stream_from_aprfile, as well as handy
things like reading hashes from stringbufs.

So what are your thoughts about creating two new functions:
svn_hash_read2 and svn_hash_write2 that accept svn_stream_t as
input/output. The originals could be removed at the next API change.
