     * Computes the legacy 16-bit checksum used by RAR 1.5 archives.
     * <p>
     * This is not a standard CRC-16 algorithm. It is a simple rotating-add
     * checksum equivalent to the {@code OldCRC16} function in the original
     * unrar source code. For each byte, it adds the byte value to the
     * accumulator and then rotates the result left by 1 bit:
     * <pre>
     *   crc = crc + byte;
     *   crc = (crc &lt;&lt; 1) | (crc &gt;&gt;&gt; 15);
     * </pre>
     * <p>
     * Only used for RAR 1.5 (method 15) archives. RAR 2.0 and later use
     * standard CRC-32 (polynomial 0xEDB88320).
     *
     * @param startCrc initial CRC value (typically 0 for RAR 1.5)
     * @param data     data to compute the checksum over
     * @param count    number of bytes to process
     * @return the 16-bit rotating-add checksum
