rebuild packages after system update when dependency got an update

I think the title says it all, it would be awesome if packer would remember all dependencies for installed AUR packages and automagically rebuilds all packages that got a dependency updated

I prefer a simple notification about packages that needed rebuild, and I can select if I want kep them and rebuild or not

I thought as an automatical way for "packer -Syu" to take care of it all, but I realise that this would blow up the script quite a bit. An additional flag to --auronly that would rebuild all aur stuff would also be fine (like packer --rebuildallaurpackageswiththisawesomeflag) so that the user has some more control and it should be easier to implement
