RStudio addin support

The session watcher allows RStudio addins to be executed via an {rstudioapi} emulation layer.

The extension provides the command r.launchAddinPicker which opens a filterable list of installed addins that can be launched. Bind this to a key, or access it from the command palette as R: Launch RStudio Addin.

Alternatively, individual addin functions can be bound to keys using r.runRCommand as described in Creating keybindings for R commands.
