Download the installed, not latest, browsers' drivers #441

Overview Related to #322 and #328, it's difficult using the update command in a script that gets executed on different machines with different browser versions and thus requiring different driver versions. Specifying a version for one means it's broken for the others.

Request Change the default behavior of update or add a flag (i.e. --installed) so that drivers compatible with the installed browsers are downloaded.

Thoughts I understand from the linked issues that this request isn't easy, however it does hold value. Please add this to the list of possible future enhancements.
