fix for this doc bug

The handbook mentions a file named 'CHECKSUM.SHA256' to verify the downloaded
FreeBSD image.  However, this name is misleading as it doesn't exist.  This
commit fixes the file name and also mentions the extra SHA512 file.

While there, I'm also suggesting the usage of the sha{256,512}sum tools,
shipped with FreeBSD base, that allow to automatically validate the checksums.
