How do I upgrade Makester?

Use the Makester primer tool in upgrade mode:

```sh Makester upgrade sh $HOME/.makester/tools/install.sh --upgrade

Prior to [Makester v0.2.6](https://github.com/loum/makester/releases/tag/0.2.6) you will first need
to sync the Makester `git` submodule:

```sh
make submodule-update
