+1 on the patch

You fellas think it's appropriate to retroactively add these files for released
versions? I'm thinking not; we'll just pick this up going forward.

ASF policy says we're responsible for all the artifacts in our distribution
area, so I'd say we ought to add them. preferably by extracting the relevant
line from the {{mds}} files we voted on originally.
> Ensure artifacts in project dist area include required md5 file

> [1]: ASF policy requires that each file hosted in the project dist
> space have a file with _just_ the MD5 sum in a file named after the
> original with ".md5" as a suffix. (Having an additional file with all
> the checksums is a good practice, IMO.) I brought this up in our last
> round of RCs as well. I don't want to hold up this vote, but I plan to
> start voting -1 on future RCs that don't include md5 files.

> Our release documentation (https://hbase.apache.org/book.html#releasing)
> says we should generate sums like so:
> for i in *.tar.gz; do echo $i; gpg --print-mds $i > $i.mds ; done
> The make_rc.sh script also encodes the same. Let's fix.
