cksum: line-buffer the printed checksums
This utility was inadvertently omitted from commit v8.0-34-g710fe41 * src/cksum.c (main): Set stdout to line buffered mode, to ensure parallel running instances don't intersperse their output. * NEWS: Mention the fix. * THANKS.in: Add Anoop. Reported by Anoop Sharma.
