Allow selecting packages for upgrade #73

Please implement "manually selecting packages" for upgrade like yaourt does and support expressions like

sudo clyde -R lib32-*

Seconded! This is a very important feature for me.

clyde let's you manually select a package when you type 'clyde '. I don't like the asterisk wildcard because it will expand to file names if you have any files that start with lib32- in your current directory. Wildcards would be nice, however.

By "manually selecting packages", I mean when there's a bunch of packages to be upgraded, and it gives you the option to drop into an editor to pick & choose which ones you want to upgrade, and which ones you want to leave out. This is brilliant when you're wary of a particular package upgrade, but you don't want to permanently add it to the ignored list.
