[Bug 1870408] Re: casper-md5check should leave a breadcrumb which apport, ubiquity, subiquity could use

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Updated implementation.

** Description changed:

  casper-md5check should leave a breadcrumb which apport & ubiquity can
  pick up. (subiquity too)
  
  There will be a file called:
  
- /run/casper-md5check.failed
+ /run/casper-md5check.yaml
  
- or
- /run/casper-md5check.passed
- /run/casper-md5check.skipped
+ If it does not exist, or is empty the check did not run enough to
+ validate anything. Treat as skip.
+ 
+ If it has content it will have:
+ checksum_missmatch:
+   - ./pics/red-upperleft.png
+ result: fail
+ 
+ optional checksum_missmatch key, which will have a list of strings that
+ are files that failed md5sum.
+ 
+ result key, which can have string values "pass" "fail" "skip".
+ 
+ One can use python's yaml safe_load to parse the file into a dictionary.
