Improve handling library.json dependencies

See original GitHub issue

Currently PlatformIO installs library.json dependencies only if a library was installed via $ pio lib CLI or specifically declared via lib_deps. It fails with Error: Could not find xxxdependency foryyy` library.

Temporary solution

A temporary solution is to declare missed dependencies in the project’s lib_deps option.
