     Allow Maven to read provided checksums from files per
     checksum algorithm. Files are more version control system
     friendly what improves their existence within projects.
     Single files are also easier to download when offering large
     checksum collections.

> While the repository layout makes sense for storage outside of a project, it would be more convenient to store checksums in a single file (per algorithm) when keeping checksums along when storing these checksums within a project. This makes the storage easier to version control and avoids the overhead of storing a lot of files in version control what often creates some overhead.
> Ideally, Maven could support such files out of the box by shipping a provider for such files.
