* update.py: introduce subparsers for plugin updaters
This is preliminary work to help create more powerful plugin updaters.
Namely I would like to be able to "just add" plugins without refreshing
the older ones (helpful when github temporarily removes a user from
github due to automated bot detection).
Also concerning the lua updater, we pin some of the dependencies, and I
would like to be able to unpin the package without editing the csv
(coming in later PRs).

including vim, kakoune and lua packages

cabal-install 3.10 has some quirky new logic for config, cache, …
directory discovery. We reimplement this in this simple bash script,
additionally respecting the CABAL_DIR environment variable.
This update adds support for $CABAL_DIR as well as the new
$XDG_CACHE_HOME location of the hackage db.
Since we maintain hackage-db, having the latest version always is nice
even though it has more reverse dependencies than the other libraries we
maintain.
When DEBUG is defined, the script just prints the URL's without actually
checking whether they're already cached or downloading/uploading anything.
That got broken because connecting to S3 now fails fast. This PR makes sure
we skip connecting to s3 in DEBUG mode.
Add a newtype for a package name and a package set. This is less for
correctness, and more just to make the code a little easier to read
through without having to keep in mind what each Text refers to.
This script is heavily based on the script used to update all python
libraries at
pkgs/development/interpreters/python/update-python-libraries/update-python-libraries.py
The Octave Packages' website uses YAML as their basis, so we must
reformat to use YAML instead of JSON.
the script can output a list of sed commands to create the order it
expects to find. this was mainly useful for initially sorting the list,
but we'll keep it here for later reference.

nixpkgs:trunk also builds aarch64-darwin these days, so this forces our
hand a little bit. We can still refuse to care about failures _too_
much, but at least we will stop merging as big a rebuilds as we are
currently.
Previously when packages that required the git fetcher were updated, we
would wrongly rely on `nix-prefetch-url`, which would reliable break the
hash.
Instead we need to use `nix-prefetch-git` to determine the proper hash,
when the relevant attributes are present.
