Summary description: Install TeX packages and their dependencies

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


FindPkg makes it easy to install TeX packages and their dependencies by file names, command names or environment names.

- To install a package by its file name you can run `texlua findpkg.lua install array.sty`;
- To install a package by some command name you can run `texlua findpkg.lua install \fakeverb`;
- To install a package by some environment name you can run `texlua findpkg.lua install {frame}`.

FindPkg supports both TeXLive and MiKTeX distributions. At present it focuses
mainly on LaTeX packages, but may extend to ConTeXt packages if anyone would
like to contribute.
