Issue Description:

Explore ways of supporting NuGet packages in SwiftPM. NuGet is a popular tool Windows developers use for importing dependencies (also heavily used by Microsoft).
It would be a huge improvement if SwiftPM gains built-in support for importing NuGet packages.

What to do:

  • Correctly map a NuGet package to a valid Clang module;

  • Find the correct lib for the target platform, set the linker flag;

  • Locate the corresponding {{DLL}}s, and copy them at build time.

Future directions:

  • Add static func nuget(id:_:) -> Package.Dependency to PackageDescription;

  • Operate on NuGet CLI to pull the dependency at build time;

  • Ship NuGet CLI with the (Windows) toolchain.

Add nuget package provider

Introduce the `nuget` package provider, which is the only option on
Windows, but is portable to other systems as well. This is required
for enabling the test suite on Windows.
