net-analyzer/nessus-bin: handle version updates properly

Nessus must be made aware of a new version of its core components having
been installed. Do it the same way as upstream distro packages, i.e. use
the undocumented nessuscli command 'install'.

This is safe to do while nessusd-bin is running but it WILL be necessary
to restart the service so that the dashboard is updated as well. In
fact, Nessus UI will complain about the version discrepancy between the
core and the dashboard until the service has been restarted.

Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/739178
