Download a GCS object

Reads a gs:// object to a temp file and stores it in Kestra internal storage. Optionally validates the file integrity by recomputing its checksum locally and comparing it to the value stored in GCS.

Validate the downloaded file against the GCS checksum

When true, the file is streamed through a CRC32C hasher (or MD5 if the object has no CRC32C) and compared to the checksum reported by Google Cloud Storage. If the values differ, the task fails and the temporary file is deleted. Used for end-to-end integrity, not for security/authentication.
