Install compilation dependenies using 'Manage Palette'

Developing Nodes
1

I have updated my node (which contain C code) to use gpiod and libgpiod as WiringPi is no longer supported. These are needed during the npm install script which compiles the code using node-gyp.

Is there any way to automatically install these operating system / compile library dependencies using the Manage Palette option, or do I need to include a manual step in the README?

e.g. sudo apt-get gpiod libgpiod

Since it may be an alpine or non apt based linux box, this is not advisable. Also, consider windows users.
