- SourceForge is the one picking the best mirror with latest download, not the maintainers.
- Latest downloads should only be used it the app us mac-exclusive.
This behavior was traditionally present, and is now recovered
by removing the audit test added in #4743. The doc is clarified
but did not require major change.

* incidental clarifications
Many backend variables similar to `cask_name` or `cask` have
been standardized to `cask_token`, `token`, etc, resolving a long-
standing ambiguity in which variables named `cask` might contain
a Cask instance or a string token.
In many places the docs could be shortened from "Cask name" to
simply "token", which is desirable because we use the term "Cask"
in too many contexts.
Replacing `link` for almost all cases.
The `link` stanza can still appear in error messages, because
under the hood, `app` is still implemented as a pure synonym
for the `link` artifact. That will change automatically when
we factor into separate artifacts.
The docs seemed to suggest that if versioned downloads were available,
to prefer them over unversioned ones. Since that's incorrect presently,
I attempted to correct that (see #6126 for more details).
`sha256 :no_check` has been supported syntax for a couple of months,
and now is being transitioned to the preferred syntax, replacing
the `no_checksum` stanza (which will still be supported, but
deprecated)
global replace of:
'phinze/homebrew-cask' -> 'caskroom/homebrew-cask'
'phinze/cask' -> 'caskroom/cask'
'phinze/homebrew-testcasks' -> 'caskroom/homebrew-testcasks'
and various other specific places that needed updates
<3 the homebrew-cask community!
This script implements naming rules for App-based Casks
as currently documented. After some real-world testing, this
logic should be merged into `brew cask create`. This commit adds
`doc/CASK_NAMING_REFERENCE.md`, and reduces `CONTRIBUTING.md` by
422 words.
