ff7ef5007e Replace most usages of ioutil with the underlying function
The ioutil functions are deprecated since Go 1.17 and only wrap another
library function. Thus directly call the underlying function.

This commit only mechanically replaces the function calls.

0ba9d4ced7 Refactor file handing for self-update.
* Write new file payload to a temp file before touching the original
binary. Minimizes the possibility of failing mid-write and corrupting
the binary.
* On Windows, move the original binary out to a temp file rather than
removing it as the running binary is locked. Fixes issue .

6e1a3987b7 Add 'self-update' command
This commit adds a command called `self-update` which downloads the
latest released version of restic from GitHub and replacing the current
binary with it. It does not rely on any external program (so it'll work
everywhere), but still verifies the GPG signature using the embedded GPG
public key.

By default, the `self-update` command is hidden behind the `selfupdate`
built tag, which is only set when restic is built using `build.go`. The
reason for this is that downstream distributions will then not include
the command by default, so users are encouraged to use the
platform-specific distribution mechanism.
