Title: PlatformIO Library Manager manifest file

* This library in Web: http://platformio.ikravets.com/#!/lib/show/Energia-RedBot
* Specification: [PlatformIO Library Manager](http://docs.platformio.ikravets.com/en/latest/librarymanager/index.html)
* Integration: [IDE Integration](http://docs.platformio.ikravets.com/en/latest/ide.html)

`library.json` is a library manifest file which can be used with different tools/managers to organise embedded libraries. Currently, only [PlatformIO](http://platformio.ikravets.com) uses it. How does this look from CLI:

```bash
$ platformio lib search "+energia +redbot"
