CRAN: per-version hash backfill only reaches current versions (historical under /src/contrib/Archive/) #1687

Description

@Marc-cn

Recording a coverage gap from a per-version artifact-hash backfill (re #1630). No fix needed yet, just documenting.

Only the current version of each CRAN package resolves for download (/src/contrib/<pkg>_<ver>.tar.gz). Historical versions move to /src/contrib/Archive/<pkg>/<pkg>_<ver>.tar.gz, so URLs targeting /src/contrib/ return 404 for anything but the latest.

Backfill coverage: ~23,892 / 183,920 versions (~13%); the rest 404 for this reason.

Fix when prioritised: build CRAN download URLs against /src/contrib/Archive/<pkg>/ for non-current versions.
