Subject: [feat] engines: add repology.org engine for linux packages (#5103)

Repology_ monitors a huge number of package repositories and other sources
comparing packages versions across them and gathering other information.

Repology_ shows you in which repositories a given project is packaged, which
version is the latest and which needs updating, who maintains the package, and
other related information.
