Adds micro to the shared package list in recipes/common.yml, so every edition ships it.

micro is a terminal text editor with the keybindings people already have in their fingers: ctrl-s saves, ctrl-q quits, ctrl-c/ctrl-v copy and paste, mouse and scrolling work. It covers the quick edit over ssh or in a TTY without anyone needing vim, and it displaces nothing, since the bases ship no editor beyond vi and nano.

Fedora 44 carries micro 2.0.15 in the release repo (verified with dnf repoquery against fedora:44 with updates-testing disabled), so this is a plain package add, not the upstream-release fetch superfile, nak, and ngit needed.

A terminal text editor that works the way people expect out of the box:
ctrl-s saves, ctrl-q quits, ctrl-c/ctrl-v are copy and paste, mouse and
scrolling work. That covers the quick edit over ssh or in a TTY without
anyone having to know vim, and it does not displace anything, since the
bases ship no editor beyond vi and nano.

Fedora 44 carries micro 2.0.15 in the release repo, so this is a plain
package add rather than the upstream-release fetch superfile, nak, and
ngit needed.
