Provide diagnostics on non-installed packages about languageserver HOT 3 CLOSED

I am not sure, users can always define their own linters and specify those in their .lintr configuration.

Of course, if you are ambitious enough, it is would be useful to the general R community if you put the extra linters together and create a separate R package, say morelintr.
Then in the README, we could point the interested readers to the package.

This is only a mimic behavior of RStudio which detects required not installed packages in a script and notify the user if they want to install them. I think this feature makes sense and makes it convenient to work with scripts given by other users though I personally don't use it much.

r-lib/lintr#547 provides a missing_package_linter so that upgrading to the latest development version of lintr and adding this linter to the .lintr config file will resolve this issue.
