Gil Cottle 9944bdedd4 Use Less Memory and Fix Text Mode on Windows/UNIX
The following are changes to fix #303:
  1. hashsum pulls 512KB chunks of the file into memory. This ends up taking 1MB with
     a secondary buffer allocated for windows. hashsum is now able to hash files larger
     than the computer's available memory.
  2. Text no longer transforms to UTF-8. This allows hashing to work on binary files
     without specifying text mode. On Windows, it converts a Windows newline '\r\n' to
     the standard newline '\n'.
  3. Set default modes: Windows uses binary by default, all other systems use text.
