use BTRFS checksums #68

I - really not into BTRFS or duperemove - wonder if duperemove could re-use the BTRFS checksums? That would probably speed things up dramatically.

Ups - now I found #7. Sorry. I wouldn't stress staying file system independent too much. I think fdupes is the popular candidate here. However, I see the point in ending up with a block size that might be inappropriately small and thereby with even more hashes to compare…
