Fix SHA-256 authors.

The initial commit 5d018dc035
in 2007 had a comment in sha256.c that the code is based on
Crypto++ Library 5.5.1. In 2009 the Authors list in sha256.c
and the AUTHORS file was updated with information that the
code had come from Crypto++ but via 7-Zip. I know I had viewed
7-Zip's SHA-256 code but back then the C code has been identical
enough with Crypto++, so I don't why I thought the author info
would need that extra step via 7-Zip for this single file.

Another error is that I had mixed sha.* and shacal2.* files
when checking for author info in Crypto++. The shacal2.* files
aren't related to liblzma's sha256.c and thus Kevin Springle's
code in Crypto++ isn't either.
