Refactor project to new name
The name of the project is being refactored from Privacy Revolver to Farside. The reasoning behind this is: 1. A shorter name is easier to remember 2. It can stand for "FOSS alternative redirecting service" (which I know doesn't encapsulate all letters from "farside", but it's close enough). This commit also includes improvements to the update script for determining how far along the script is.
