Extend Energia include path

[SciLor]

Currently it is impossible to extend the include path within Energia. This makes it hard to include complex libs such as libopus which don't have relative includes within their files (and this mean you would need change every include within the external lib).

See energia/Energia#1063
and arduino/arduino-cli#501

Possible solutions: Set up custom buildchain( see #13 ) or fix Energia itself.

Well, it seems that this issue will not be solved in the short term. I have developed a script that easily replaces include directives to relative ones. This should reduce the time it takes to port a 3rd party library to the Arduino ecosystem.

Based on this script I easily ported the lwIP TCP/IP stack into Arduino.

Hey @vChavezB thank you for sharing.
This would be a great option. If I stick to energia.

Currently I started to replace the compiler with the one from HackieboxNG. I also managed to get the debugger running via vscode.
