Don't do this.  Add

glslopt = { path = "third_party/rust/glslopt" }

into the [patch.crates-io] section in Cargo.toml to make cargo skip the
checksum, and then remove the source and checksum of glslopt in
Cargo.lock instead (IIRC the Cargo.lock change can be done via a cargo
update -p command but I'm not so sure I don't have time to try it now).

In general you shouldn't be editing the .cargo-checksum.json files in
the first place, as cargo already provides the [patch.*] section to skip
the checksum verification.
