This is a small follow-up to #25650 (commit
614d4682ba) with three fixes/improvements:
- fix "Checksum did not match" detection, which was not adapted to the new
SHA256_SUMS structure and hence never executed (the list of tarball
names isn't directly in the dictionary's values anymore, but has to be
extracted from the 'tarball' field of each value)
- make both help text and default tag download order deterministic by
sorting default tags
- "--tags" argument help text: add missing space between "for" and
"backwards"
in order to run the backwards compatibility tests, specific releases are needed.
previously, the list of tags was in test/README.md, but it makes more sense to
have them as the default list in script
It is not possible to run the compatibility tests on i686 because the
releases v20+ are missing for that arch. It would be possible to
self-compile those releases, but then one can also self-compile
0.15-0.19.
The previous diff touched most files in ./test/, so bump the headers to
avoid having to touch them again for a bump later.

179a051704 util: improves error messages on get_previous_releases script (Nelson Galdeman)
Pull request description:
When previous releases are fetched and the specified version wasn't added to the checksum list we used to get a "Checksum did not match" which isn't true (https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoincore.org/issues/753#issuecomment-879546719).
If the specified version number is not on the list, it now logs cannot do the comparison instead.
