AJ ONeal 9f28505af7 ref: delete unreachable upstream-fetcher modules
Stacked on the modifications PR. Now that no live code path references
the per-package fetchers, the shared HTTP/parsing helpers, the
in-process normalizer, or the example template, delete them. Pure
deletion — no behavior change.

- ~93 per-package <pkg>/releases.js fetcher modules.
- _common/{brew,fetcher,git-tag,gitea,github,github-source,
  githubish,githubish-source}.js shared HTTP/parsing helpers.
- _webi/normalize.js in-process normalization layer (cache files
  arrive normalized from webicached).
- _example/releases.js fetcher template for new packages.

The Go cache daemon (webicached) is now the sole producer of release
metadata; the Node process never makes an upstream request.

Cheat Sheet

aliasman helps you love your aliases again! 🥸
Set 'em once, use 'em everywhere!
(and all in just one dotfile, for an on-the-go friendly config)

aliasman <alias-name> <command-name> [args, pipes, redirs, etc]

What are Aliases?

An alias is just shorthand for a shell function.

Take a long command like this:

git commit -m "feat: new feature"

And turn it into a short command, like this:

gc "feat: new feature"

(that would be aliasman gc 'git commit -m')

Imagine the possibilities!

  1. What if you could quickly create a command, ll,
    that does the work of ls -lAhF!?
  2. Set an alias to do just that!
    aliasman ll 'ls -lAhF'
    
  3. Reload your alias config (or open a new terminal)
    source ~/.config/envman/alias.env
    
  4. Use it!
    ll

aliasman gri 'git rebase -i'

aliasman la 'lsd -AF'
aliasman ll 'lsd -lAhF'
aliasman ls 'lsd -F'

aliasman rgi 'rg -i'

aliasman tree 'lsd -F --tree --group-dirs=last'

# random password generator
