Projects like GameHub use the long title of the game as the name of the directory that stores the installers. If gogrepo used the same structure we could use the gogrepo offline backup directly as the cache of game installers in GameHub, and in this way save time and bandwidth on needless downloads. This option is off by default for compatibility and because the (shorter) titles are a bit better supported in filesystems (and consistent?) than the longer ones.
GameHub makes use of the MD5 hashes and stores them alongside the installers. If we were to use gogrepo's backups as the source of installers for GameHub, having the MD5 hashes already present would be convenient. An option for storing said hashes as files is present in the code, and disabled by default.

I'm working towards facilitating the connection of gogrepo with GameHub.
GameHub stores the MD5 hash alongside the installer files. I added the possibility of storing this information when downloading or importing files on gogrepo.
