Title: Auto update

addresses most of #169 and #170.

Unsolved: vanilla go-update is unable to pull different version. it just compares binary checksums.
Because of this i left `ipfs update log` unimplemented. Maybe use github release tags for this?

To set up autoUpdate:
* create an account at [equinox.io](https://equinox.io/user/login) and download the release tool
* change user, secret and app_id in `cmd/ipfs/equinox.yaml` and in `updates/updates.go` update `const updateAppID`
* create keypair for siging with `equinox genkey --private-key equinox-priv --public-key equinox-pub`
* update `const updatePubKey` in `updates/updates.go` with the contents of `equinox-pub`
* push new release with `equinox release --config equinox.yaml --version 0.2.0`
