rcat isn't checking checksums like it should #6305
Description
In the forum thread: https://forum.rclone.org/t/optimize-rclone-on-raspberry-pi-4-8gb/31741 it was pointed out that rcat is not checking checksums unless the --checksum flag is supplied.
This is not as designed as we are calculating the checksum but never checking it.
A code review revealed that the with size branch of RcatSize is not calculating or checking checksums either and this needs to be fixed. This is a bigger change.
