new script for mirror release upgrades

Thanks for your hard work Sir 🤙🏾

@dazza120 my pleasure…

[sdetweil]

we know that each release WILL modify package.json (at least version number)

typically changes to package.json are because someone installed extra modules (npm install ??? will update the file)

[sdetweil]

and another question

I have 20 modules installed in the modules folder… but only 2 are active that have package.json files.

should we upgrade ALL of them? or only the active ones…(with disabled: false)

I suspect that most of the time, the list will be the same either way. mine is weird cause I help others with module problems by installing them myself (and don’t erase for a while)

one point to note here
to get JUST the enabled ones, we need to run a tiny javascript file, (so it will take two files)
otherwise we can do this all in bash
