vpnor partition table: fix checksums

Checksums in the host-endian partition table were being incorrectly
computed. Fixed this problem.

The checksums in the host-endian (big-endian) partition table were being
computed by just converting their little-endian checksum counterparts to
big-endian. This won't work because one of the fields in the table is a
string, which is stored the same irrespective of endian-ness. Hence the
checksum must be re-computed for the host-endian partition tables.

MBOX

This repo contains the protocol definition for the host to BMC mailbox communication specification which can be found in Documentation/mbox_procotol.md.

There is also a reference implementation of a BMC mailbox daemon, the details of which can be found in Documentation/mboxd.md.

Finally there is also an implementation of a mailbox daemon control program, the details of which can be found in Documentation/mboxctl.md.
