Note that Docker images may contain device nodes. BuildStream elements cannot
contain device nodes so those will be dropped. Any regular files in the /dev
directory will also be dropped.

Review Comment:
I sort of feel the opposite in this case.
I've been mulling over this ambiguity, a google search tells me:
> In cryptography, "digest" and "hash" are often used interchangeably, but
technically, a digest is the output of a hash function. SHA-256 is a specific
type of hash function, a cryptographic algorithm that generates a 256-bit
(32-byte) hash value, also known as a message digest
Instead, how about we drop the `SHA256` entirely, since it is just the
*digest* of a more specifically defined hash function ?
In any case, the only way to know what is intended or usable from the
version type, is the consult the upstream plugin documentation.
