Description

@yoshimo

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
WoWhead.com is a useful database that people rely on to help with various projects or when they are stuck.
That requires people to supply collected data with the wowhead looter addon

Describe the solution you'd like
WowUp should detect the wowhead looter addon and update it
Bonus Points if we have a module to upload collected data

Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative is always running the official client.

Notes
The wowhead updater checks client.wowhead.com/files/updates.dat which includes addon files and their MD5 hash to compare against the local files for each game version, beta/ptr/classic/classic_ptr/retail.

A mismatch will cause a download for each file specified in the updates.dat like this:
client.wowhead.com/files/beta/Wowhead_Looter.lua
