Improve the implementation in src/core/writer.js a little bit

- Let the `writeString` helper function return the new offset, to avoid having to recompute that in multiple spots.

 - In the `computeMD5` helper function we can create the `md5Buffer` via Array-destructuring, rather than using a manual loop.
