Make checksum validation optional #14

Closed ChrisKeefe closed 3 years ago

ChrisKeefe commented 3 years ago

Checksum validation requires re-hashing almost all of the data in the zip archive, and may be computationally expensive enough to negatively impact large-scale projects (e.g. QIITA). This should be optional, but should probably validate by default, as most users won't be negatively impacted.
