Given a downloaded file, extract possible sources from OS X extended
attributes, which may be useful in a Cask url stanza.

Currently the only attribute examined is

    com.apple.metadata:kMDItemWhereFroms

This attribute will typically be set if the file was downloaded via a
browser, but not if the file was downloaded by a CLI utility such as
curl.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for more information.
