add a way to use an apt config file to find the indices
Description of the change
This was surprisingly straightforward. The man page changes are a total guess!

From the apt side I feel like you'd want to directly pass a sources.list and otherwise initialise stuff with Dir::Etc set to /dev/null, that is create a config on the fly that sets
Dir::Etc: :sourceslist "argument";
Dir::Etc "/dev/null";
From the germinate side of things, I'd like to hear more about the use case. Germinate is quite critical and used in very weird places and it's an explicit design decision to not use any apt bits in it, so it's a bit concerning.
