Simplify usage of `cpackget` #324

The Problem To Be Solved To download latest packs the user it today request to use the update-index command that actually updates all *.pdsc files in the .Web folder.

For getting information about latest packs the index.pidx file should be sufficient. In fact Keil Studio Desktop can obtain all other information (about devices, packs, etc) utilizing web services which removes the need for a local copy of all *.pdsc files.

Suggest A Solution Can we review the usage of the .Web folder?

cpackget update-index --sparse shall not update any pdsc files in the .Web folder.
