Add table with released artifacts to Github releases

[mx-psi]

We release a lot of artifacts on each release. To make it easier to navigate, we can automate generating a table for all artifacts. For example something like this:

	otelcol	otelcol-contrib	otelcol-k8s	otelcol-otlp
Checksum	txt	txt	txt	txt
darwin/amd64	tar.gz	...	...	...
darwin/arm64	tar.gz	...	...	...
...	...	...	...	..
linux/amd64	tar.gz, deb, rpm	...	...	...

We may want to generate multiple tables for signatures and SBOMs, or alternative just make the rows things like "linux/amd64 deb SBOM".

I like the idea of a table, but I'm a little confused by what's in the sample above.

For example, by checksum, did you mean revision? A checksum of the binary would differ for each arch, so I don't think putting it at the top would work well.

Rather than multiple tables, I'd suggest a single table with terse links
e.g. the linux/amd64 row would look something like this:

	otelcol	otelcol-contrib	otelcol-k8s	otelcol-otlp
linux/amd64	sums/tar.gz/deb/rpm	sums/tar.gz/deb/rpm	sums/tar.gz/deb/rpm	sums/tar.gz/deb/rpm

The first column should say "checksums" rather than "checksum". I was referring to this file in particular: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-releases/releases/download/v0.111.0/opentelemetry-collector-releases_otelcol-contrib_checksums.txt

My concern with a single table is that there are too many things for a single distro-arch combination, namely (for the worst case):

• The deb
• The rpm
• The tar.gz
• The .pem for the deb
• The .sig for the deb
• The .pem for the rpm
• The .sig for the rpm
• The SBOM for the deb
• The .pem for the SBOM for the deb
• The .sig for the SBOM for the deb
• (Same thing for tar.gz and same thing for the rpm)

That seems like way too many things to put in a single cell 😄
