Usethis: use_addins()

[EmilHvitfeldt]

Function to help setup the necessary steps for addins in a package.

Would

• Create a file at inst/rstudio/addins.dcf (if not already present)
• Add the 4 lines to file and populates the binding.

Example

use_addins("addin_function")

(following lines added in "inst/rstudio/addins.dcf")
Name: --- please supply name ---
Description: --- please supply description ---
Binding: addin_function
Interactive: false

I came to ask for almost exactly that, except that I'd suggest :

use_addin <- function(binding, name = binding, description ="", interactive = FALSE)`

And overwrite an addin specification that would have the same name or the same binding function.

We'd love to see a PR for this. I think it should be fairly simple, following a template from an existing function.
