auto download of platforms

[pelikhan]

Similarly to your setting to automatically update a platform, there should be an option to automatically install a platform if missing. Basically, it should just work.

PlatformIO has that feature. Please enable prompts:

$ settings set enable_prompts yes

# then try to process project without installed platforms
$ platformio run

I can't install something without user's confirmation. Each development platform consists from the several packages which will be unpacked and will consume ~100-150Mb of disk. Also, that operation requires "Internet" to install it. User should confirm this operation. I don't like when someone installs something without my confirmation.

I always run without promost. Just give a setting to override to make it
work with no prompts.
