nfsd: depend on CRYPTO_MD5 for legacy client tracking

The legacy client tracking infrastructure of nfsd makes use of MD5 to
derive a client's recovery directory name. As the nfsd module doesn't
declare any dependency on CRYPTO_MD5, though, it may fail to allocate
the hash if the kernel was compiled without it. As a result, generation
of client recovery directories will fail with the following error:

    NFSD: unable to generate recoverydir name

The explicit dependency on CRYPTO_MD5 was removed as redundant back in
6aaa67b5 (NFSD: Remove redundant "select" clauses in fs/Kconfig
2008-02-11) as it was already implicitly selected via RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5.
This broke when RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 was made optional for NFSv4 in commit
df486a25 (NFS: Fix the selection of security flavours in Kconfig) at
a later point.

Fix the issue by adding back an explicit dependency on CRYPTO_MD5.
