Add a "Copy to Clipboard" button for download checksums (SHA256/MD5) #1956

Description

@HereIsMuhammad

Summary

Introduce a quick-copy button next to the cryptographic verification hashes on the downloads page to improve user experience and accuracy.

Details


Problem
Currently, when developers download PHP binaries, they have to manually highlight and copy the SHA256 or MD5 signatures to verify their downloads. This often results in accidental selection of trailing spaces or incomplete strings.

Suggested Solution
Add a subtle, accessible clipboard copy icon next to each hash string on the downloads page. Clicking this button will instantly copy the raw hash to the user's clipboard.

How it helps
Eliminates human error during selection.
Speeds up the verification process for security-conscious developers.
Aligns with modern UI standards seen on sites like Ubuntu, NodeJS, and Apache downloads.
