Update to development PlatformIO version

[mactabish]

How can we use the development version of PlatformIO? There is a SAMD uploading issue which has been fixed as of today, but is only available on the latest dev version of PlatformIO.

Atom has an option for PlatformIO to update to latest (even non-stable versions), does Deviot have something similar? If not, whats a quick fix that we can do for now?

Here is link to SAMD issue at PlatformIO: platformio/platformio-core#520 (comment)

A fast solution I can bring you is:

• Download this branch
• Remove the previous version of deviot; ST Menu > Preferences > Browse Packages Remove the Deviot folder
• Remove the deviot user preferences folder; ST Menu > Preferences > Browse Packages go to User folder and remove Deviot
• Restart ST

After that, theplatformio dev version should start to be installed
I'll improve this feature in the next release.

Sweet! A suggestion is to have a little check mark option in the settings.

For reference, here is how it is currently implemented in the Atom IDE for PlatformIO.

@gepd Hmm, are you sure that its pulling from the develop branch of PlatformIO? Where is that specified in the code?

I'm sure: https://github.com/gepd/Deviot/blob/feature/pio_develop/libs/Install.py#L188
