Summary	5274: Make addon updates smarter
Description	Addon updating needs to be a bit smarter: 1. When importing an addon that already exists, the UI should clearly indicate we are doing an update, not an install. Perhaps also indicate the version from -> to. 2. The addon management should be smart about detecting changes in the files for the addon_registry. If a file that existed in the old version no longer exists in the update being imported, it should be removed from the server (unless another addon registry hook indicates it is still using it).
