PATCH v2 1/1 signrom: Rewrite as python script

Now that we have a hard dependency on python anyway, we can replace the slow shell script to calculate the option ROM checksum with a fast AND portable python version. Tested both with python 2.7 and 3.1.

---

Changes in v2:
- Switch to GPLv2+.
The tool replaces an inefficient GPLv2+ implementation, so want to avoid any license "regression". As it is self-contained, it doesn't affect the QEMU core license anyway (which least common denominator remains GPLv2).
