nixel: 4.1.0 -> 5.1.1 + Add Update Script

[itzwam]

Things done

Enabled basic update script then ran it on my computer 👍

• Adapted rustPlatform bindgen dependency for using clang16 or I encountered exactly the same issue as Build failure: fh #331240

➜ nix-shell -I nixpkgs=$HOME/Documents/nixpkgs -p nixel --run 'nixel --version'
NixEL 5.1.1

• Built on platform(s)
  • x86_64-linux
  • aarch64-linux
  • x86_64-darwin
  • aarch64-darwin
• For non-Linux: Is sandboxing enabled in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
  • sandbox = relaxed
  • sandbox = true
• Tested, as applicable:
  • NixOS test(s) (look inside nixos/tests)
  • and/or package tests
  • or, for functions and "core" functionality, tests in lib/tests or pkgs/test
  • made sure NixOS tests are linked to the relevant packages
• Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
• Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
• 25.05 Release Notes (or backporting 24.11 and 25.05 Release notes)
  • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking

Added some informations on why clang16,
Wasn't able to determine properly the exact bindgen version, because the similar issue seems to use unrelated versions
