md5sum: should there be a md5sum file?

[Peter Hyman]

getmd5 function does not write md5sum file for zip. Isn't an md5sum useful for installation on devices?

function getmd5(){
if [ -x $(which md5sum) ]; then
echo "md5sum is installed, getting md5..." >> $GLOG
echo "Getting md5sum..."
GMD5=$(md5sum $OUT/$GARCH/$BUILDZIP)
return 0
else
echo "md5sum is not installed, aborting" >> $GLOG
return 1
fi
}

when you sideload a zip the device doesn't check its md5, even if there's the file.zip.md5 file. I just print it so i can copy-paste it on the readme.md of builds branch

Sideload, correct. Install using TWRP or similar always checks md5sum.
