fetchurl: disallow specifying both sha256 and hash
A full check would be more complicated to write -
and more importantly - probably also more expensive.

Motivation: eval-time catch for errors like in commit 8198636be0.

- If you wish to get the same effect as before, for elements with spaces (even if escaped) to expand to multiple curl arguments, use a string argument instead:
curlOpts = ${lib.strings.escapeNixString (toString curlOpts)};
