Recalculate and compare a ROM's internal checksum #6

Open ehw opened 7 years ago

Pretty much every ROM and/or disc dump contains checksum information in the game header. This information is usually calculated before the data is written to the medium. We should report on this information and compare it with a recalculation of the checksum, since it could be an indicator of bad dumps, etc.
