Description
The idea is to supply a way for users to create a luet packages cache server with only packages used by your installations.
In particular, we want two type of repeaters:
passive: it's a mirrors to use for try to fetch packages before use the servers defined inside repository urlsactive: it's a server that could be sync throughluet-repeaters-loadertool is a similar way:
$> luet search --installed . | luet-repeaters-loader --to myserver1.local --to myserver2.local

Research direction
Start by examining the existing luet search --installed entry point and the proposed luet-repeaters-loader command. Define how passive and active repeaters should work, including how the loader synchronizes packages to multiple servers; completion requires an agreed design and coverage for both repeater types.
