Description

@MicSG-dev

Describe the request

In the 'Sketch' -> 'include Library' menu there is the option 'Add .ZIP library...'. There should also be an option to include a library from a Github link, since there are numerous Arduino libraries that are in repositories on Github, but are not in the Arduino Library Manager.

Describe the current behavior

There is no option to include libraries from a Github link. There is only the option to include a .ZIP file.
