Add support for pacman's progress bar Easter egg

[omentic]

This pull request implements replacing the ###--- progress bar with the -C o o style, based on /etc/pacman.conf. Since pakku wraps pacman in places, this will make both outputs look the same.

It also includes two commits I made to get Nim building that are probably poorly and unsafely done, and can be trashed if need be.

Could you make a PR for the Easter Egg patch here for pakku-git: https://github.com/zqqw/pakku Although I could add it myself, it would make it easier to keep the history right with you as the author then. I don't think I can easily merge it as it is due to some minor changes in related areas. Sorry I didn't spot this sooner, fantastic idea! There are no warnings building pakku-git. Benjamin Shirley-Quirk's patch has fixed it and it builds with the current nim-git. I had to manually merge it in some places, here is the diff I ended up with if it makes it a bit easier, hope it's OK, apparently working anyway:

Sure thing, let me know if the pull request I just opened works. I'm going to leave this one open too, just in case kitsunyan checks back in and decides to merge some stuff.
