        * gst/gstregistrybinary.c: (gst_registry_binary_write_chunk),
        (gst_registry_binary_initialize_magic),
        (gst_registry_binary_write_cache),
        (gst_registry_binary_check_magic):
        * gst/gstregistrybinary.h:
        Don't write and check a CRC for the binary registry file. It's
        guaranteed that the registry is completely written (it's first written
        to a temporary file and then moved) and if the registry was corrupted
        by some hardware failure we would have bigger problems.

        This saves some milliseconds for reading/writing the registry.
        Fixes bug #560399.
