Harmony 3 Repo restore

We often need to switch between different dependency versions of Microchip Harmony3 components. However, when we do this in bulk using the dependencies button of the content manager or using an example manifest file, it is difficult to restore all the dependencies back to the latest versions. This tool helps you do just that.
