Feature Request: Add a command (Ctrl-Shift-P) to find package #11

Hey! Awesome plug-in. Found this while looking for something to fill this ^--- need.

It would be really neat to have an "Install Hex dependency" command, so we can go Ctrl-Shift-P, find an "Install dep" command, and then be able to search for a dependency right in the command palette.

Selecting a package in the palette should then update mix.exs with the package name and version.

Here's a very professional sketch of what I mean

I might look into it myself because it seems like a fun exercise, but I have zero experience with VS Code extensions so it might not even be feasible/something you wish to add. Just a thought! Good job with the plugin

This is a very neat idea, indeed. I didn't work on VSCode extensions beside this one, too 😉 But let's see if I find some time to checkout how the command palette works and if this is somewhat feasible.
