riot-desktop: update to 1.6.0.
Riot 1.6.0 came out ~2 days ago. This is a build for 1.6.0 following the new instructions posted here: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-desktop. This build also fixes the encrypted room search (version 1.5.15 has a syntax error in the build I think).

I am not exactly happy about this build downloading riot's source via yarn, although it does at least verify it with GPG. It uses a NodeJS script in the distfile to acquire riot-web's code for building. I would like a suggestion on how to improve this (unless it's okay by the Void maintainers, in which case, let's go crazy). It should be noted that the Riot developers plan to support fetching from arbitrary URLs in the future, but right now the script is required to download the riot-web source.

I think I will at least try to move the key and signature files to XBPS distfiles instead of letting yarn fetch them.

Edit: ^ having XBPS download the key files didn't really work.
