Updater extension for OpenSesame/ Rapunzel

About

An extension that automatically checks for updates to extensions and plugins for OpenSesame and Rapunzel.

The extension first collects all packages that need to be checked by inspecting all implicit namespace packages within opensesame_extensions and opensesame_plugins, which can define a package list in __init__.py (see also opensesame_extensions\updater\__init__.py).

Next, the current version and the latest version of each of these packages is checked. By default, conda is used to check packages installed by both conda and pip; this is the primary update method on the Windows and Mac OS packages of OpenSesame/ Rapunzel, which are built using conda. If conda is not available, then pip is used to check packages for user-installed pip-packages ; this is the primary update method on Ubuntu, on which updates are generally handled through apt except for optional pip-installed packages.
