Support for OpenBSD's got #91

Description

I tried to install jpm on my OpenBSD machine with an updated [open]bsd_config.janet: :manpath (string prefix "/man/man1") and :gitpath "got" instead of git.

OpenBSD is developing got as a nice, no-nonsense (no git column for example) alternative to git.

While the bootstrap installation works as expected, installing a module does not.

$ doas jpm install spork    
doas (luca@hostname) password: 
got: unknown option -- C
usage: got [-hV] command [arg ...]

Got doesn't have a -C flag, nor does it need one; if we run cd in a subshell, the script can fetch in there without affecting the parent's current directory. There is also the very handy cd - on UNIX :)

I think this would be a good first commit for Janet by myself. What do you think about supporting got or rewriting the git-functions in a modular way so both commands work as expected?
