Any reason that [md5sum] isn't included as a normal part of the
sqlite installation/api?
SQLite seeks to avoid unnecessary feature creep. It also seeks
to be small and compact. Adding new built-in functions, especially
obscure functions such as md5/md5sum, does not seem compatible with
those goals. For SQLite users who need md5/md5sum, the function
is simple enough to add using the sqlite_create_function() API.

md5sum is omitted from the core for policy reasons, not technical
reasons.
