Title: Add CVS support

I tried adding support for CVS in the hopes of packaging AUCTeX. However, it looks like AUCTeX is going to switch to git. Also, AUCTeX is also rather more difficult to build than most packages so I gave up.

Rather than just lose my work I thought I could push this as (a first attempt at) a solution to #177.

I tested it with

(emacs-w3m
:fetcher cvs
:url ":pserver:anonymous@cvs.namazu.org:/storage/cvsroot")

and the package builds, but I didn't test that it was correct.
