Description

## User Story

As a server owner, I want mods-update to check if oxide is up to date before downloading so that it doesn't unnecessarily download oxide every time the command is run.

## Basic info

* Distro: Ubuntu 19.04
* Game: Rust
* Command: mods-update

## Further Information

The version of umod/oxide can be retrieved from this URL: https://api.github.com/repositories/94599577/releases/latest . The name field contains the current oxide version, which could then be stored by LGSM and compared before downloading.

## Further Reading

I'm using this plugin https://umod.org/plugins/smooth-restarter, which also checks that field.
