vim-plugins: rewrite updater
A new python script has been added to replace the aged viml-based updater. The new updater has the following advantages: - use rss feeds to check for updates quicker - parallel downloads & better caching - uses proper override mechanism instead of text substitution - update generated files in-place instead of having to insert updated plugins manually Automatically reading `dependencies` from the plugins directory has been not re-implemented. This has been mostly been used by Mark Weber's plugins, which seem to no longer receive regular updates. This could be implemented in future as required.
