This PR adds support for adding "extra commands" to vab.

The feature only work if vab is explicitly compiled with support for it to
make sure no arbitrary extra commands are executed by vab per default.

A working example:

Compile vab with extra command support (needs this PR checked out):

v -d vab_allow_extra_commands ~/.vmodules/vab

Install an extra command (larpon/vab-sdl supports building SDL based V apps for android):

vab install extra larpon/vab-sdl
vab doctor # Should show a section with installed extra commands where `vab-sdl` should show.

Using the extra command (needs vlang/sdl module installed):

vab sdl ~/.vmodules/sdl/examples/tvintris -o /tmp/tvintris.apk

Transfer /tmp/tvintris.apk to your device and run it to see the game in action
(NOTE sound does not work because of a limitation of the version of SDL_mixer's mod support on Android).

Feedback and ideas are welcome.

If this goes in I'm planing on writing a section for the documentation about best practices and
conventions when developing these extra commands.
