FIX XET-142.
Previously we removed the chunk cache validation on the cache items on the get path since it turned out to be where all the time was spent on cache operations. This PR reintroduces checksum validation, now that we are using checksums rather than more expensive hashes.
Notably the verification is still rather expensive since it requires reading the entire file, whereas a simple cache get may only need to seek to 1 section of the file.
Verification is done only once on a best effort basis, i.e. it is not strictly enforced that the verification work is done only once, if 2 threads attempt to verify concurrently, double work is done. See VerificationCell.
