Gui/font related updates

- Bump the tool/scroll/menu config to the top so it happens quickly.
- Don't refresh packages unconditionally
- Add the auto-package-update package to make updates easier
- Move debug-on-error to setq-default which it should have been in the first
  place
- For now use Comic COde as the default frame font, this is setup for macos only
  atm future me can figure out portability when/if I run on
  linux/bsd/godhelpmewindows again.
