In the same vein as purescript/registry-dev#723, we add hash verification for the lockfile hashes: the check between tarball hash and what we store in the metadata is error-worthy, but we currently say nothing if the lockfile doesn't have good hashes. This makes sense as those hashes were initially put there for tools such as Nix.
In any case, as we are approaching the Registry-regen, it might make sense to start warning about these mismatch and make them actionable. @thomashoneyman the current warning is not very actionable, I would like to tell users to regen the lockfile, do you have any ideas on how to not make it overly scary?
