#444 fetch-release: add missing homedir to gpg command (@jonasnick)

Updating from 0.0.61 and 0.0.62

nix-bitcoin versions 0.0.61 and 0.0.62 contain a bug (fixed in #444) that breaks the update script. Therefore, in order to update you need to perform the following manual steps:

1. Run nix-shell in your deployment directory.
2. Paste the following into the shell to fix the fetch-release script:

   fetch-release() {(
    scriptDir=$(nix-instantiate --eval -E "<nix-bitcoin>")
    cd "$scriptDir/helper"
    <fetch-release sed 's|gpg --list-keys|gpg --homedir $GPG_HOME --list-keys|; s|scriptDir=.*|scriptDir=.|' | sh
   )}
   

   Note that we take the existing fetch-release script and use sed to perform the fix from #444 and set the scriptDir.
3. Now you can run update-nix-bitcoin.
