OK, then we should support this as an alternative in quake2.yaml.
Please send size in bytes, sha1 and sha256 to the cloned
g-d-p bug.

If you can briefly describe where you got this particular copy of
Quake II (e.g. publisher? country? original retail version vs.
some budget re-issue? etc.) that would also be good, but if you can't
remember those details that's fine - I know a lot of people's
copies of 90s games like this have moved from PC to PC for
years without going back to the original media :-)

Adding this seems like a reasonable thing to do at the same time -
it was apparently in an earlier official patch, and is only a 330K
download from the idstuff mirror of your choice, so I'm inclined
to give it "official" status and put it in quake2-full-data.

We could maybe add the 64-player DM maps and q2ctf4a as well;
those are a total of 8M compressed, which I think is on the borderline
between "just put it in quake2-full-data" and "it's worth introducing
quake2-bonus-data so people don't *have* to download it". Thoughts?
(If it's separate, we should not enable the auto-download until #775080
is fixed.)

I made 20M of Jedi Academy bonus content into a separate
jedi-academy-bonus-data package, but tbh I'm not sure whether I
should have just rolled that into the main package too.
