show-index: fix uninitialized hash function

In c8aed5e8da (repository: stop setting SHA1 as the default object hash), we got rid of the default hash algorithm for the_repository. Due to this change, it is now the responsibility of the callers to set their own default when this is not present. As stated in the docs, show-index should use SHA1 as the default hash algorithm when run outside a repository. Make sure this promise is met by falling back to SHA1 when the_hash_algo is not present (i.e. when the command is run outside a repository). Also add a test that verifies this behavior.
