Can the various sqlite3 libraries be downloaded selectively

[dmbates]

On a Ubuntu system the Sqlite package does find the correct shared object for the library, /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsqlite3.so.0.8.6 but the lib subdirectory of the package is still populated with various .dll and .so files that are not used. Is it possible through some of the facilities in the BinDeps package to download only the necessary versions of the library, which would be none in this case?

Hmmm...yeah, we need some kind of change here. The reason I'm bundling them in was because it's really difficult to find a 64-bit windows .dll and so I thought I'd just include it, and from that decision thought I'd just include the others as well. I guess I can scrap all of them and try to maintain links to where users can get the libraries if needed.

@loladiro, could I have you take a look at the build.jl I just committed to see if it's doing the right thing here?

If it has to come from Google Drive, it might be better just to keep bundling it.
(I'm hoping to teach a class that uses this package in January, Windows users are usually the ones with the most issues so anything to keep it smooth!)
