This variable allows a user to configure how often `brew update` runs. With the previous implementation, however, it was still pretty slow as it would run some of `brew update` even within the timeout. This feels related to complaints about Homebrew "feeling slow" since we enabled this. Address this by: - making `HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS` behave more like `HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE` and entirely skip the invocation of `brew update` if the relevant tap (homebrew-core or homebrew-cask depending on command invoked) has been checked in the last `HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS` - Only require/check the update of a single tap rather than every tap - Increase the default value of `HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS` from 1m to 5m to cut people a bit more slack. We're not updating things often enough for 1m not to feel a bit overkill and 5m feels appropriate for a Homebrew "session" to only require a single update.
