[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] docs/manual: also document md5 hash

[Yann E. MORIN]

We accept an md5 hash, but only if comming from upstream, and id
also accompanied with a stronger hash.

Thanks to Maxime for the interactive review! ;-)

 The +none+ hash type is reserved to those archives downloaded from a
 repository, like a 'git clone', a 'subversion checkout'... or archives
 downloaded with the xref:github-download-url[github helper].
