Description
This would point to the checksums file for a particular release, if available. Currently `add-digests` uses some heuristics to try and find these files (eg. `/.sha256`, `/checksums.txt`, etc.) but this is not scalable to more combinations.
The file would be used only when populating the manifest `sha256sums` table.

Research direction
Start by tracing the add-digests flow and the code that populates the manifest sha256sums table. Add the sha256sums-source attribute for a release, use its file when available, and verify that existing checksum heuristics still work when the attribute is absent.
