Possible Starter Code For Ticket #119

I saw a request for Koji to use a stronger cryptographic hash function such as SHA256 
( https://fedorahosted.org/koji/ticket/119 ) on RPM packages. I took some time in reading how the 
RPMTAG_SIGMD5 is calculated and implemented some Python code to hash the same RPM data 
using hashlib's SHA256 module. The outputted SHA256 digest can be stored in Koji's DB and 
also retrieved/calculated/checked with any new packages that are being submitted. 


$ rpm -q --queryformat '%{RPMTAG_SIGMD5}' -p "gcc-4.6.2-1.fc17.1.src.rpm"
c88e96685e7eb3a124a5707b1bc41333
$ python sha2pay.py gcc-4.6.2-1.fc17.1.src.rpm
['c88e96685e7eb3a124a5707b1bc41333', 'c729d818d5468f8b1147cb70b266992f92f58c9dace218417c7582427d1e5561']
