Description of changes:
This change optimized the checksum routines for smaller payloads. This is especially important for the IPv4 header, which only checksums 18 bytes (20 if you include the zeroed checksum itself).
With these optimizations I was able to improve things by about 20%.
Testing:
I've updated the benchmarks to include the 20 bytes:
I've also added a few new kani proofs to show functional equivalence of the optimized code and the RFC code.
