Log:
Fix the svn_checksum_to_cstring() docstring to actually say what
was intended. Also, make clear that the behavior is new for 1.7 and
trying to use it in 1.6 will cause segfaults.

(svn_checksum_to_cstring): fix docstring
What happens if somebody makes a svn tool that is compiled and built against the
new 1.7 behavior and then it is backported to 1.6, it may core dump.
Should we add a svn_checksum_to_cstring2() instead with the new behavior or
backport this change to 1.6? But even then we'll have 1.6 versions with
different behavior. It seems making a new svn_checksum_to_cstring2() is better.
