Per-package updaters?

Hi Guix,

we have a couple of generic package updaters (CPAN, CRAN, Bioconductor,
Github, GNU, etc), but they don’t nearly cover all of our packages.  I
wonder if we should add one-off updaters for individual packages that
don’t fall into any of the generic classes of updaters.

Another question is how to implement them.  Would there be another
optional field in package expressions containing a Guile script to run
to determine updates for the current package?

What are your opinions on this?
