Ports 0.2 redesign #44

Move away from asdf based download/install/list model
Ports will be composed of
- Resolver: function that'll change the user provided InstallConfig into one that the port can work with
  - Entry point for fuzzy version matching
  - Can resolve other non-version fields (rust targets and components for example)
- Builder: any number of steps to complete that'll produce the final artifacts.
  - We don't really need an install step as ports are not allowed touch user's system. This might prove a blocker for some kinds of software.
  - Each step will be memoized
    - Think incremental computation.
  - This should provide flexibility for ports that need to more than fetch artifacts from network.
  - Implementation should have in mind shape of any future Build module weather we write our own or integrate from third-parties.
  - For the 0.2 impl, just simply adapt the InstallsDb to support more than install/download step.
  - If not possible to do hashing on steps themselves, we can always do hash(port-semver, step-idx)
