>   • honors ‘updater-extra-inputs’ and ‘updater-ignored-inputs’ package
>     properties (and similarly for native and propagated inputs);
>
>   • add those properties to a few packages;
>
>   • ‘cran’ updater keeps inputs alphabetically sorted;
>
>   • ‘gem’ updater now updates inputs as well.

> to reduce the maintenance cost of all these imported packages, and this
> is a step in that direction.

> If there are no objections, I’d like to apply this series within a few
> days.
