Description

This introduces CertificateFingerprints.from_string(), which takes in
a string value, normalizes it, and attempts to determine if it
represents a SHA-1 or SHA-256 value. If it's either of these, an
instance of CertificateFingerprints will be created and returned with
the appropriate field filled out. Otherwise, None will be returned.

This is useful for cases where we're working with SCMs that provide a
single fingerprint that may be in either of these formats.

Testing Done

Unit tests pass.

Do we want to validate that the string itself is in the correct format as well as the length? These are pretty easy to validate via regex.
