It may not be desirable to host all plugins on npm, allow for local packages to
be installed given a package name with a `file:` prefix.
This is still more restrictive than what yarn would support but allows us to still
verify the thelounge compatibility by reading the package.json file.
`yarn add` messes up with local filepaths and generates a lockfile that is
"outdated" as far as any other yarn commands go, which makes them error out.
For some reason `yarn install` fixes that and hence we run that after an install.
Here's the diff of yarn.lock between the broken state after `yarn add file:$path`
and `yarn install`

The only thing it does is switch an absolute path to a relative one for whatever
reason.
- When installing a package on Node v8 (or whatever npm version ships with it - v5), all packages not listed in `package.json` are removed. Since we explicitly added `--no-save`, installing a theme would delete the previous one. I am now checking that the file already exists or not. This means that it will still happen to people the next time they run `thelounge install`, because the previous install did not save into `package.json` :/
- Adding `--save` to make sure that the same, correct behavior is done on Node v6 as well (npm v3)
- Adding `--save-exact` for good measure.
- Hides progress bars that flash when installing/uninstalling as it does not bring real value here, at least for now
- Inform user if package being uninstalled was not actually installed
- Do not display npm outputs, mention which version was installed (this will probably need refining when installing packages with dependencies)
