Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Users should be able to programmatically specify packages and remotes to install.

Describe the solution you'd like

The Unicornfile would be a regular Lua file with a series of nested tables. There would be a table for packages and a table for remotes.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using the API to install: This isn't very portable to API changes.

Using the command line and installing everything manually: This isn't very programmatic.

Using shell.run to call Hoof: This isn't very portable and requires Hoof, which should not always be assumed to be available.
