Feature Request: Update WW and RW via startup parameter #293

Description

@InstantMuffin

To integrate WW with keyboardless installations, one can start WW using the "-rr" or other start parameters. This way startup scripts can be integrated into various launchers (Steam, ES-DE), to execute RW over WW without having to use mouse and keyboard.
Unfortunately, updates to either WW or RW require manual intervention with mouse and keyboard input.
It would be beneficial for those setups to have another start parameter ("--updateonly") that merely starts WW, checks for updates, and if available, downloads and install them automatically, and then closes WW. That way startup scripts can work like this and offer full gamepad-only integration (except for the initial setup of course):

Launch WW --updateonly
Wait upon exit
Launch WW -rr
Wait 10 seconds
If no dolphin emu process found -> Kill WW and Exit fail
Wait for dolphin emu process to close
Kill WW
Exit success
