Christopher Allen Lane 80c91cbdee feat(installer): use go-git to clone
Integrate `go-git` into the application, and use it to `git clone`
cheatsheets when the installer runs.

Previously, the installer required that `git` be installed on the system
`PATH`, so this change has to big advantages:

1. It removes that system dependency on `git`
2. It paves the way for implementing the `--update` command

Additionally, `cheat` now performs a `--depth=1` clone when installing
cheatsheets, which should at least somewhat improve installation times
(especially on slow network connections).

Create a new agent.Agent on any type of OS (so including Windows) from any Go application.

Limitations

When compiled for Windows, it will only support Pageant as the SSH authentication agent.
