desktoppr: init at 0.5

[andre4ik3]

This PR adds desktoppr, a small utility to manage the desktop picture/wallpaper on macOS.

Two patches are included for the 0.5 version:

• Patch to update the version in the output of desktoppr version as well. The 0.5 release still has the version as 0.5b, this patch corrects that.
• Patch to add a Package.swift file so that it can be built with Swift Package Manager, instead of the Xcode build system (the project file doesn't seem to be compatible with the deprecated xcbuild tool in Nixpkgs). I made a PR for this patch upstream: Add support for building with Swift Package Manager scriptingosx/desktoppr#31

Rest looks good, but big changes needed,

@Eveeifyeve Ok I updated it, removed the swiftPackages for just the normal stdenv. swiftpm2nix isn't needed here because it doesn't have any dependencies outside the normal Darwin SDK.

Blocked merged waiting on pr scriptingosx/desktoppr#31 to be merged mainstream.

[andre4ik3]

Alright. Now I updated it to fetch the SwiftPM patch from the GitHub PR, and use substituteInPlace for the version fixup. I also added a version install check as a basic test the program runs and can output its version correctly.

LGTM, other things you might want to consider are update scripts if you want to automate the updates.
