NSIS is neither padding nor calculating the PE-file checksum. But the tool
we use for signing and the tools for stripping the signature do which leads to a
SHA256 mismatch if one tries to check that the binary we offer is actually the
the one we got from our reproducible builds.

This small Python snippet does both things: It pads the .exe if necessary and it
recalculates the PE-file checksum. Details of the discussion can be found in bug
15339: https://bugs.torproject.org/15539.

Thanks to a cypherpunk for this workaround idea.
