Actual delta updates for Thrive #6

One of the main points of having a launcher (besides automatic updates) was to make the updates smaller.

This is probably quite difficult to set up as I haven't found any existing format we could adapt for this purpose so we need a packing script that makes delta updates between 7z files generated for each release.

Maybe a tool like https://github.com/itchio/wharf would work. I haven't found any good other generic delta update libraries. Bundling rsync with the launcher and using that could also work but isn't really optimal.

Launcher releases are so small by themselves that when auto-updating the launcher delta updates aren't really necessary.
