Cross-platform downloads

[TheHippo]

It would be nice if this grunt task could be configured to download pre-built binaries for all supported platforms. This would allow to package applications, which don't have any binary modules, on any computer.

For node-webkit there is this excellent grunt plugin, which does this exactly this and also packages the executables with your HTML/JavaScript/CSS/... files: grunt-node-webkit-builder.

+1 This, to me, is a pretty necessary feature, especially because one of the main reasons we are using Atom Shell is how easy it is to package up an application for multiple platforms.

However, I can see why you would only want to download it for the platform you are currently working on. You should never 'release' software on a platform without testing it on the target platform.

I've submitted pull request #7 with some basic support for this.
