Upgrade specific packages #10

Something like how Brewlet does it: Brewlet - Upgrade specific packages

(Btw thanks for your project, been looking for something like Brewlet for Choco)

Hmmm, yes interesting. You can "pin" packages in Chocolately to prevent them from being upgraded, and pinned packages are ignored by ChocoButler, so that was the use case I had in mind. But I see that this could be useful. The downside of this would be that if you updated just one package, then you would keep getting alerts about the others, which could be a pain? I'm not a mac guy so have never seen brewlet, but kinda glad ChocoButler looks similar, convergent evolution! Maybe I can steal some more ideas from it?!

I've checked in changes (62f38475da865b446f9e7ac868d8f828643f5823) to give a new packages menu, which shows the outdated packages and allows them to be individually upgraded. You should just be able to run the latest chocobutler.ps1 script and/or replace your existing one to test it out. I'll do more testing and create a release later.
