Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoincore.org/issues/793.

This updates the binary verification instructions to account for the new process, which uses multiple builder signatures on the SHA256SUMS file. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/22634 for more details.

Thanks for the quick review and helpful feedback, @harding. I did test that Windows, macOS, and Linux were working, but I like your suggestion about bumping the page version to 5 much better than the original approach, so I've done that. I think I've incorporated all of your feedback (diff) and so, provided you're happy with the copy, this should be ready for testing.
