Duplicate Indicate when add-on needs updating

[AndrewSimm]

Xenforo should create integration between the forum software and Xenforo.com that checks for updates to add-ons.

Specifically, when the user loads the list of installed add-ons there would be some type of visualization for each add-on indicating whether the add-on is up-to-date or if the add-on is not on Xenforo it would indicate that it cannot check.

This was suggested before, but died due to lack of interest, https://xenforo.com/community/threads/add-on-update-alerter.153028/

Was re-suggested here, https://xenforo.com/community/threads/dev-api-for-addon-auto-updates.155839/

It would be a nice feature for sure but of course there's already a workaround: Make sure you Watch all threads for add-ons you use so you get an email notification when it's updated.
