doc: add copy about how to curl SHA256.txt

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/MylesBorins/update-sha-verification-copy into master

Currently we include instructions on how to check the sha of a downloaded tar-ball, but do not include instruction on how to get the SHA256.txt file. This has led to confusion with people thinking that the SHA256.txt is included in that tarball.

This commit includes instructions on how to use curl to download the SHA256.txt prior to the instructions on how to verify the sha.
