Whoops, sorry, made a thinko.  package-update _doesn't_ really
obviate the need for eglot-update, because it won't be callable
in Emacs 26/27/28, and eglot-update will.

...unless package.el itself becomes a :core package and
self-updates through ELPA, which I think is being proposed
around here somewhere.  Could happen in master (and leave
Emacs's 29 version untouched).

So for the moment eglot-update is my best out.

João
