This PR adds clarification around NuGet package checksum qualifiers.

Should there also be a nuget_lock_sha512 qualifier or similar for holding the package hash? It could be useful for cases where somebody is trying to generate an SBOM from a packages.lock.json file. NuGet packages are not namespaced by their source repository and the source repository information is not included in the packages.lock.json file. The package hash is the only disambiguating information in that case if there are multiple packages with the same name and version.
