create command to update installed packages

[line-o]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a database admin I want to quickly update all installed packages.

Describe the solution you'd like

xst package update [--repo] [<packages>..]

packages is a space separated list of identifiers. Identifiers can be either the (abbreviated) name or the namespace URI of the package.

update all

• xst package update

update one

• xst package update monex
• xst package update http://line-o/xq/dicey

use non-default repository for lookups

• xst package update --repo https://localhost:8080/exist/apps/public-repo monex

Describe alternatives you've considered

To avoid having to move xst install to xst package install the command could also just be xst update.

Additional context

This feature request is a result of a slack discussion A first implementation for the db query

i would stick with xst package update as it more clearly states what it does. xst update and xst upgrade should be reserved for updating and upgrading exist itself ;-)

@duncdrum very good point. Hadn't thought of that!
