DS keys with 2 digest algorithms

Hi,

Thanks for this confirmation.  I had our registrar remove the digest
algorithm SHA1 DS
entry and this has worked as expected.  No errors or warnings at any DNSSEC
checkers.

Maybe in the future dnssec-signzone won't generate the deprecated entry to
begin with.
