I notice that the "d-ng" field already contains both the hash algorithm and the
hash itself, in the form <algorithm>:<hash>. Wouldn't it make more sense to
define a "d-ngv2" field that contains <type>:<algorithm>:<hash>? After all,
both the type and algorithm are required to interpret the hash.

Or in other words, what about the hash type is different from the hash algorithm
that would result in them needing different handling here?
