The checklist descriptions were slightly edited to be more clear. Also,
while following them, I noticed that while removing the "delete-me" parts
on `verify.mk', would cause an error: the `if [ $$m == delete-me ];'
statement we were saying to delete cause an error because `elif' was the
first statement Bash would see. So with this commit, the `download'
conditional (which isn't instructed to be deleted) was set to be the top
(with an `if') and the `delete-me' conditional now has an `elif'.

Until now, if the file to be verified didn't exist, a different checksum
would be generated, and it would stop, but it wasn't immediately clear if
the differing checksum is because the file doesn't exist at all!
With this commit, before calculating the checksum, we first make sure if
the file exists. If it doesn't exist an explicit error is printed and thus
will help the project editor to find the cause of the problem.

Until now, the only verification that the template provided was the
published PDF. Users had to manually compare the published and generated
PDFs (numbers, plots, tables) and see if they obtained the same
result. However, this type of manual verification is not good and is prone
to frustration and missing important differences.
With this commit, a new Makefile has been added in the analysis steps:
`verify.mk'. It provides facilities to easily verify the results that go
into the paper. For example tables that go into making the paper's plots,
or the LaTeX macros that blend into the text. See the updated parts in
`README-hacking.md` for a more complete explanation.
This completes task #15497.
