Currently `obnamlib.Repository.checksum` returns a hex-encoded checksum.
This wastes space, since we could just use a raw byte string of the
digest. However, fixing this requires changing the repository format,
and it's not worth for the minor benefit. When the format needs to
change anyway, then this should be done, too. --liw
