Fetches the latest version of a program or file from GH releases. Similar to https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium but simpler. I've made this in scripts before, but should figure out how to generalize.

Edit: https://github.com/houseabsolute/ubi exists too

We can copy most of the logic from here https://github.com/ublue-os/main/blob/main/github-release-install.sh

We can also add GitLab & Codeberg releases logic.

Maybe call the module something more universal in that case.

Like binary-releases or something. Have to come up with the better name

It's not all binaries either, the script I linked is for RPMs, so we have to figure out a better name. Maybe source-releases or something.

This project also exists as an AppImage/portable tar app manager:

https://github.com/ivan-hc/AM

It's written in Bash & functions similarly to something we want here.

They have some templating system which we can possibly borrow, but modify it & simplify it for our usecase.
