8-bit Checksum

Calculates the 8-bit checksum for a sequence of hexadecimal bytes. Bytes are provided as two-character strings. Characters can be in upper or lower case. Spaces are ignored but there must be an even number of characters.

The 8-bit checksum is the 2's complement of the sum off all bytes. The checksum value, when added to the sum of all bytes produces a result of zero.
