Is your suggested feature related to a problem? Please describe.

On older versions of the Modrinth.com website, you could see the jar filename and it's file size on a version download page. This feature was useful because it allowed people to identify mods in their mods folder quickly using the Modrinth.com website, among other things.

I understand that you can see this information when hovering over the downloads button but that also means that you cant copy the text so its more inconvenient. Having this information in a non-hidden spot would lead to a better user experience in my opinion.

An old version of the Modrinth.com website on Create 6.0.8's version page for 1.21.1 with the filename and file size highlighted

Describe the solution you'd like

Overall I do like the new version page so I don't it should be rolled back. Maybe just put the files section (which was removed and contained the filename and file size) between the compatibility and changes sections. This location would be good for people who are used to the old layout.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Maybe this text below could be replaced with filename and size as it seems redundant due to the text right above it. This location is good because it is right next to the regular name of the version and the filename and files size could be split with spacers for better readability. This location would not add back the files section.
