Martin Willi e4f0fb126d utils/generate-cyclonedx: generate externalReferences with source-distribution
BSI TR-03183-2 5.4.2 [1] lists source code URIs under "Additional data fields
for each component", and as such "MUST additionally be provided, if it exists".

If a http or https source download URI is available from show-info, extract
it and include it as an externalReference of type "source-distribution" in the
CycloneDX output.
