Description
What is wrong: dolt's `Makefile` `css` recipe hardcodes `sha256sum` (`mv web/static/main.min.css web/static/main.min.$$(sha256sum … | cut -c1-8).css`). On a machine without GNU coreutils, `sha256sum` does not exist, the command substitution silently yields empty, and `mv` produces `web/static/main.min..css`.

Why it matters: that filename does not match the `main.min.*.css` glob `assets.Resolve` looks for, so `assets.Resolve` answers `""` and every page renders unstyled — with no error anywhere (`set -e` does not catch a failure inside `$$( )`). This is compounded in dolt specifically by D23 (dolt does not log when the resolve comes back empty).

Sibling that already does it correctly: `sourcehut-bench/Makefile` and `sourcehut-curator/Makefile` define `SHA256SUM ?= sha256sum` and use `$(SHA256SUM)`, with a comment naming `make SHA256SUM="shasum -a 256" css` as the macOS invocation.

Fix: add `SHA256SUM ?= sha256sum` to dolt's Makefile and substitute `$(SHA256SUM)` in the `css` recipe.

Status: verified (grep confirms dolt's Makefile has 0 uses of a `SHA256SUM` variable and ≥1 raw `sha256sum` call).
