This adds an implementation of p4fj's UpdateRepository which can download plugin metadata from an http api.

It also adds a new interface PrefetchUpdateRepository which extends p4fj's interface to add a prefetch() method. When initialising plugins, Nextflow will call this prefetch method on any UpdateRepository which implements this interface, allowing the repository to optimise how it downloads plugin metadata (for example, only loading metadata for required plugins rather than for all plugins).

Use of the new http update repository can be enabled with the new NXF_PLUGINS_INDEX_URL environment variable. If set, this overrides the default indexUrl location of the plugins.json metadata file. If the supplied url ends in .json then Nextflow will use the existing update repository implementation, otherwise it will use the new http api implementation.

Unless this new env var is set, these changes should have no effect on Nextflow's behaviour.

Not major comments apart if I'm not wrong there isnt any unit test for this pre-fetching mechanism ?

Ideally there should not be any warning if the url is the current (github) index or the uri host is *.seqera.io
