SubPackets

Subpacket are a speciall type of packets, that aren't distributed separetly but instead are the contents of another packet.

The purpose of subpackets are to be able to provide optional functionality associated with packet, but that isn't strictly needed for the packet to function, or not big or decoupled enough to warrant using as a seprate packet.

The specific use case that lead to this creation was having bash autocompletion/vim extensions associated with a packet. These are extensions that aren't needed by any means, and they also provide functionality that is only relevant for the exact packet in question, which means that making them into a completely seperate packet is also a bit uneccesary.

The only difference between a subpacket and a regular packet is in how it is accessed through a packets specification, and with the upload and update command.

A subpacket can't be uploaded to a remote, and also not updated separately. They are also retracted whenever it's parent packet is removed, and verified whenever it's parent is verified for upload.
