Add commands to enable listing/installing/uninstalling/updating project tools

See original GitHub issue

To add a tool to a project, the "tools" section of the project.json file must be manually edited. This isn’t great for IDE scenarios where installation of tools on-demand based on UI gestures is required, e.g. managing tools from the NuGet dialog, on-demand install of the Razor tooling services from the Razor editor. IDEs should not have to edit the project.json to do this.

We’d like to add the aforementioned feature to the Razor editor in VS for RTM but we’re blocked by this.

Ultimately these commands would just delegate through to nuget.

E.g.

dotnet install-tool dotnet-razor-tooling
dotnet uninstall-tool dotnet-razor-tooling
dotnet list-tools

Closing as this is now done for global/local tools.
