This allows installing packages using mip
from an index served from the local fs.
Usecases:
For local testing (especially but not necessarily limited to) using the unix port.
So you can locally generate an index from the repo and install packages from the index without starting a local http server.
And for packaging the complete index of this repo for the opensuse rpm (micropython-lib) without needing to launch an http server within the build environment. Previous we were using the makefile that was dropped from this repo so I decided to generate a local index and then install all packages contained in that index to the buildroot.
