Sigil downloads page out of date

A new user brought to my attention that the advice I'd given them to download the CHECKSUM.sha256.txt file in order to be able to check their Sigil download's integrity was not correct.

When I check on the https://sigil-ebook.com/sigil/download page, there is a mention of the checksum file but no link. Of course, the download buttons initiate the downloads from github website but the viewer never actually loads a github releases page.

There is a link, "releases", which takes us to https://github.com/Sigil-Ebook/Sigil/releases and there alongside each of the latest releases is a button to copy its sha256 checksum.

It would be good to have same or similar on the sigil-ebook.com website since this is the more public facing page.

Scrolling further down the sigil-ebook.com/sigil/downloads page to the section "Sigil on Linux", it would be good to give pride of place to a mention of the new AppImage instead of promoting flatpack which has not been very responsive recently.
