MDEV-28181 The innochecksum -w option was inadvertently removed
In commit 7a4fbb55 (MDEV-25105) the innochecksum option --write (-w) was removed altogether. It should have been made a Boolean option, so that old data files may be converted to a format that is compatible with innodb_checksum_algorithm=strict_crc32 by executing the following: innochecksum -n -w ibdata* */*.ibd It would be better to use an older-version innochecksum for such a conversion, so that page checksums will be validated before updating the checksum. It never was possible for innochecksum to convert files to the innodb_checksum_algorithm=full_crc32 format that is the default for new InnoDB data files.
