I see people hosting files (usually binary files) under https://github.com/downloads/<user>/<repository>/
. How do they do it?

You can't. That doesn't exist anymore... GitHub used to have a Downloads
API that was replaced by the Releases
API back in 2013. Old links were redirected and still work as you can see on the example you provided in the comments.
Nowadays, if you want to make files available for download, you should use either the Releases feature or the Packages feature.
