Extensions per OS Platform

[mtxr]

• VSCode Version: 1.20 Insider
• OS Version: OSX 10.13.1

I'm the creator of https://github.com/mtxr/vscode-sqltools and I would like to give support for SQLite3 on my extension.

The problem is that the node sqlite3 or others sqlite modules are compiled using node-gyp during npm install.

I would be good to have a extension supports per OS or mark some packages to be built/download during extension installing process.

Any other suggestions?
