Previously, OS detection would happen on each invocation. This makes it
happen once (unless it fails, in which case it will try again on the
next invocation).

This has the additional benefit of localizing the platform-specific
checks and commands, too, versus spreading them out in separate
functions.

Ideally the parameter would just be removed-users could always
just do "clipcopy < some-file". but removing the parameter would break
backwards compatibility.

In any case, this simplifies the logic considerably.

The original suggestion for an unattended install downloads the installation script to a file, then runs that file with the --unattended argument. The install.sh file would be left behind after the suggested command was run.
This change passes the --unattended argument directly into sh. So, it's a nice one-liner like the default installation script, and it doesn't leave a dangling install.sh script.

After wandering into a few articles that discuss the difference between might and may...opting for may.

Redirect stderr to avoid printing errors to the console when the ssh key is not
unlocked.

Add better usage instructions for the plugin which actually work

Just add aliases for PVC actions.

* git: add `alias grev="git revert"`

* Swapping double for single quotes

Matching the conventions in the plugin

* Clean up plugin and README
* Rename ag to age to avoid conflict with The Silver Searcher
  Fixes #3866

* Use double quotes to cache value of $apt_pref and $apt_upgr
* Clean up and fix syntax of command checks
* Clean up README and document $apt_pref/$apt_upgr overriding mechanism
* Rename `ag` alias (apt upgrade) to `au`
* Clean up README and fix syntax

Fixes #3686 
Fixes #4660 
Closes #5906

Zsh may be configured such that ">>" will error if the file doesn't exist (`setopt noclobber`). 

tput is error-prone and may not be needed, since all the formatting
codes used are standard across all types of terminals.

* gitfast: use $OSTYPE again

In the last update to upstream this was reverted:

 a56eac7a

 (Use OSTYPE instead of uname whenever possible for better speed. (#5496))

* gitfast: simplify plugin

No need to set and unset a variable we use once.

* gitfast: add script to update from upstream

This would make easier the process of updating, and also not miss our
patches.

installer: fix, refactor and add installer arguments

tput may throw errors on invalid $TERM values, for example.
This shorthand syntax allows for that as well as for if tput
doesn't exist.

Supposed to be POSIX-compatible. Proved to work in dash, yash and whatever
alpine uses. See https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/371873

This facilitates testing of changes to the core installation code: you'll be
able to do a roundtrip test of install and uninstall using the working code on
your branch.

Controlled by passing $REPO and $BRANCH environment variables to install.sh.

This changes the behavior to default to the binary found first in $PATH,
then checking it's actually in the shells file (/etc/shells).

If that fails go back to the previous behavior, but actually check that
the path obtained exists in the filesystem.
