3.3 Step 3. Initialize MD Buffer
A four-word buffer (A,B,C,D) is used to compute the message digest.
Here each of A, B, C, D is a 32-bit register. These registers are
initialized to the following values in hexadecimal, low-order bytes
first):
word A: 01 23 45 67
word B: 89 ab cd ef
word C: fe dc ba 98
