This feature makes Git VCS build inputs immutable by adding support for
pinning a Git checkout by a hash of its content using the deterministic
export functionality `git archive`.
This feature aids packagers by allowing them to use simple and
convenient refnames (instead of full commit hashes) in the `PKGBUILD`
while still preserving security implications of immutable build inputs
using a trusted cryptographic hash function of the content.
Previously VCS source downloads have been skipped for `--geninteg` and
`--source` as both options did not need a checkout. This commit changes
this behavior by forcing the download of all sources as integrity checks
and generation requires to have an up to date state.
