crypto/sha256: add examples for New, Sum256
The goal for these examples is to show how to mirror the functionality of the sha256sum Unix utility, a common checksumming tool, using the Go standard library. Add a newline at the end of the input, so users will get the same output if they type `echo 'hello world' | sha256sum`, since the builtin shell echo appends a newline by default. Also use hex output (instead of the shorter base64) since this is the default output encoding for shasum/sha256sum.
