ee cli update

Update EE to the latest release.

Default behavior is to check the releases API for the newest stable version, and prompt if one is available.

Use --stable to install or reinstall the latest stable version.

Use --nightly to install the latest built version of the develop branch. While not recommended for production, nightly contains the latest and greatest, and should be stable enough for development and staging environments.

Before it starts, the update asks you to confirm a notice: run it in tmux or screen, have at least 5 GB of free disk space, and follow progress with tail -f /opt/easyengine/logs/ee.log. --yes answers every prompt.

EasyEngine checks the download against its published md5 hash and runs the new version once before it replaces ee. The next ee command then runs the migrations for the new version, including container image updates.

On macOS, update with brew upgrade easyengine instead.
