Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * Image builds take time
 * Some of the time is spent computing checksums
 * Those checksums are never used
 * Time and energy is wasted
 * build/(md5|sha256)sum.txt is not used by livecd-rootfs and not exposed by 
launchpad-buildd

[Test Case]

 * Build images
 * Disable checksums
 * Build images
 * Ensure image deliverables are unchanged 

[Regression Potential]

 * Someone was using the checksums outside of launchpad-buildd; because
launchpad-buildd doesn't present those artifacts

** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
