Matthias Reichl 38a137c923 addon update scripts: refactor repo fetching and package updating ...

Kodi binary and game addons always reference branches in the addon
repo. The only exception is the kodi-platform package which references
a githash.

This allows us to simplify remote repo fetch and tag / branch HEAD
resolving: we don't need named branches in the working copy but can
simply query remote branches or use a detached branch if we need the
actual contents.

With this change the same (out-of-tree) directory containing cloned
repos can be used to update both kodi Leia and master addon versions,
without needing another clone.

Also refactor the package update code, drop update_to_latest_tag from
common functions (it was only used by update_binary-addons,
update_retroplayer-addons needs slightly different logic) and use
update_pkg function. update_retroplayer-addons now also uses update_pkg
instead of duplicating nearly identical code.

Several variable names have been cleaned up to follow a common naming
pattern.
