[Enhancement]: Use Nirsoft hash_check to get hashes and x64 links
Prerequisites
- [X] I have written a descriptive issue title.
- [X] I have searched all issues/PRs to ensure it has not already been reported or fixed.
- [X] I have verified that I am using the latest version of Scoop and corresponding bucket.
Package Name
nirsoft bucket
Expected/Current Behaviour
Current: verified hashes require download to calculate hash, x64 download links are guessed or overridden when an inconsistency is identified - this is manual and resource intensive and more invasive to nirsoft.
Expected: It seems the hashes and x64 availability can both be found by making additional requests to eg: https://www.nirsoft.net/hash_check/?software=shexview
Steps to Reproduce
NA
Possible Solution
This could make a good future enhancement to alleviate the need to download the files to get hashes (making updates much less intrusive and resource-intensive for nirsoft and CI). Not sure it's much better than a head request for identifying x64 versions but it might be a more "definitive" way of finding their existence.
Roles could be as-follows:
- PAD = definitive list of all Nirsoft applications and core manifest content
- hash_check = definitive download link, file hash and x64 availalbility
