Users who want to update the database more frequently than on each FTL release can use the python script from the FTL repository to generate the database themselves. The macvendor database is an optional component so a failing download is no reason to interrupt the installer. **How does this PR accomplish the above?:** Run a `curl` command after having verified the SHA signature of the FTL binary but before stopping FTL for the update. **What documentation changes (if any) are needed to support this PR?:** None
