Update info action output and update README.md
Show the value of some relevant environment variables instead of calling
uname, which might show private information like the host name.

Other minor fixes regarding output.

Optional async check for latest version
every 30 days, storing it in a .latest_version file.

Also allow disabling this with:

Check the latest version using `git ls-remote`
which is being used to list the latest tag starting with `v`.
Print a warning if it's different than the current version being used.

Compile also after upgrade, add ZIM_HOME to info
We want to recompile zimfw.zsh if it changes.
ZIM_HOME is not required to be set beforehand anymore, so let's give the
users the variable info back.

Generate static init.zsh script \o/
to autoloads the functions and sources the scripts, instead of executing
zimfw during startup, and having it always figuring out what do to on
the fly.

This takes out the worry about zimfw interfering with the startup time,
and allows room to add more features to it. So, zstyle was replaced by a
custom zmodule function to define the modules, with the extra ability of
allowing users to set custom fpath paths, autoloaded functions and
sourced scripts per module.

Zim script in a single file \o/
Also moved the templates out of this repository, and into the
zimfw/install repo.

This is a second big change after introducing the plugin mechanism. This
makes installation and upgrading of Zim straightforward. Maybe the most
important aspect of having the script in a single file is not having to
manage "git repos inside git repos" (see #297), since the single file
exists by itself and is not version-controlled (with git).

I've implemented a two-stage sourcing of the file, so most of the file
is only sourced when needed (namely when calling `zimfw` with any action
other than `login-init`). The two-stage process is designed to avoid
compromising the startup speed, which is our top priority.

In an effort to help making the script maintainable, I've broken it into
small ERB templates. This also adds the ability to pre-process the Zsh
code with Ruby code. To build the script, use `make`.
