Automatically download indexes, if missing, in gRPC Init call (#2119)

* Created core.PlatformList implementaion follow gRPC naming

Previously it was named GetPlatforms with a different return type than
the one defined in gRPC API .proto files.

* Added test for #1529

* Perform first-update automatically in gRPC Init

* Made cli.instance.Create function private

* Extract function to compute index file name

* Auto-download 3rd party indexes as part of the Init
