(Note: This is technically a successor to this series [0], but since I changed a
lot around and also added onto it, this is not a v2 but a seperate series
entirely.)

Bring the "Updates" panel up to par with PVE by adding two features:
* A /changelog API call
* A fix for #2934, so new packages that will be installed on upgrade are
  shown too (i.e. new kernels)

The former also requires extracting a new 'http' module out of 'api', so we can
make simple HTTP requests from 'tools'.

Before that, some cleanup is done. Even with that, the code is not quite a prime
example of readability, but with the weirdness that is the libapt-pkg lib and
binding, this was the best I could manage.

Patch 4 is a dependency bump on a new version of my forked libapt-pkg binding
(apt-pkg-native(-rs)). As before, the changes I made to that can be found on
GitHub [1]. Patches 5 and later require the new version to compile.
