Faster cache updates and package list loading. #110
Now we only extract the manifests to save about 10 seconds when my laptop is on "Better performance" mode, or almost a minute when it's on "Better battery". As a result of the extra time budget, the current file that's being extracted is now shown in the "Extracting manifests" window. Moving the manifests instead of copying them further improves cache update times.
Additionally, the statusbar isn't updated every time a package is added to the package list, thus further potentially improving performance since it's not having to redraw itself constantly. That may not be that helpful as sometimes adding packages to the list is fast and sometimes it's slow, even when updating the statusbar constantly.
