The appcast stanza has been supported by the DSL for some time, though
we aren't doing anything with it (yet).

For Casks using the latest schema, the content available at the appcast URL
contains a version-specific URL which may be a preferable alternative.

Appcasts can be used for automated detection of available updates. I have a private
snapshot of appcast content from 3 March which I intend to compare against recent
fetches for these Casks.

The appcast URLs in this PR are not a complete set. They were extracted only for
the following subset

  • Cask uses the link artifact to install an App bundle
  • Casks uses the version 'latest' schema
  • Application uses Sparkle for appcasting, in the default form (SUFeedURL key readable from Info.plist)

@alebcay, I thought you might be interested in incorporating appcast changes into
your nightly Cask check.

Edit: two appcast stanzas are commented out due to retrieval issues
