Move make update to rake update

What does this merge request do and why?

This moves the update make target to a new rake task called update in lib/tasks/update.rake.

This MR is intended to not change the behavior of gdk update (except for errors, where the message changes). That will happen in follow up MRs (e.g. in Add support for tty-spinner in rake (!3814 - merged) and for Parallelize gdk update (#2115 - closed)).

How to set up and validate locally

From make

  1. Run make update
  2. See the deprecation warning
  3. See that GDK updates as before

From gdk

  1. Run GDK_SELF_UPDATE=0 gdk update
  2. See that GDK updates as before
