/// Calculates a checksum using the [DammSum](https://github.com/cypherstack/dammsum) algorithm.
///
/// This approach uses a dictionary whose size must be `2^k` for some `k > 0`.
/// The algorithm accepts a slice of arbitrary size, each of whose elements are integers in the range `[0, 2^k)`.
/// The checksum is a single element also within this range.
/// DammSum detects all single transpositions and substitutions.
///
/// Note that for this implementation, we add the additional restriction that `k == 8` to handle byte slices.
/// This is only because DammSum requires us to provide the coefficients for a certain type of polynomial, and
/// because it's unlikely for the alphabet size to change for this use case.
/// See the linked repository for more information, or if you need a different dictionary size.
