Building: Windows: Set EXE checksums (pyinstaller#5579).
Windows executables contain an optional checksum to protect against corruption. It turns out that several of antiviral programs raise false positives if this checksum is missing or wrong. Setting this checksum appeases McAfee and inconsistently fixes MS Defender which are probably the most common (and also dumbest) AVs for Windows.
