Open the documentation of a package

[pierreporte]

With TeX Live, the command texdoc allows to open the documentation of a package or a class (in fact, every kind of documentation). For example, textdoc babel opens the PDF file of the documentation of babel (the documentation files are installed with the full distribution). People who don’t use TeX Live and who don’t have a similar command have to go to the CTAN website to download the documentation.

It would be really nice do have a similar feature as texdoc in texiteasy. If the files are on the system then it opens it, else it downloads it from the CTAN.

The features would be similar to the “do everything” dialog of Sublime Text (see #28). The features should not only search for exact matching but also in the description of the packages and in the name. For example, asking for “listing” should give me listings first, but also listingsutf8, minted, etc. because they are also packages for listings as said in their descriptions.
