Restore cli tools via paket

[forki]

/cc @enricosada @alfonsogarciacaro @davkean @dsplaisted

This PR allows dotnet restore to create a obj/PROJECTNAME.fsproj.paket.props file with the following content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="14.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <MSBuildAllProjects>$(MSBuildAllProjects);$(MSBuildThisFileFullPath)</MSBuildAllProjects>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    <DotNetCliToolReference Include="dotnet-fable" Version="1.1.6" /> // or whatever cli tool we find
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

With this we can get rid of maintaining DotNetCliToolReference in our precious csproj/fsproj.
This became an issue since version number of dotnet-fable and Fable.Core need to match. Which involved manual work and some degree of giving a fuck.

used in SAFE-Stack/SAFE-BookStore#132

Open question:

• how do we really detect a cli tool. At the moment we check package name starts with "dotnet-"

It need to be explicit, trust the user
cc @livarcocc of dotnet/cli team too, for feedback

In theory, there is a flag to be set in nuspec (also for discriminate the dotnet new templates) but is pratically unused in real world.

any netcorepp1.0 console packaged will work afaik.
The only rule is: executable name must have prefix dotnet-, so dotnet-app.dll for dotnet app not the package itself, the executable
so if exists lib\netcoreapp1.0\dotnet-{something}.dll can be used as cli tool
Can exists more executables in same package btw

that said, lot of cli tool, doesnt use dotnet- prefix in package name, so need to add a conf in paket somehow.

Discussion is still open. I just merged it into alpha version so that we can experiment downstream Am 05.07.2017 15:32 schrieb "Enrico Sada" <notifications@github.com>:
