J. Nick Koston 5cc7719ae4 [cli] Use pio run -t idedata to set up libretiny penv on cold hosts
The prior commit invoked 'pio pkg install' for the on-demand prep step,
which installs the libretiny platform package but does NOT recreate the
~/.platformio/penv/.libretiny/ virtualenv -- that's set up by libretiny's
ConfigurePythonVenv SCons step, which only fires during 'pio run'. So a
cold host (penv missing) still failed to find ltchiptool after the install
returned 'Already up-to-date'.

Wet test against bw15-device.yaml on a host with the libretiny penv
deleted:
  esphome upload bw15-device.yaml --device /dev/null --prebuilt-dir ...
  INFO ltchiptool not found on this host; installing the PlatformIO
       rtl87xx platform package ...
  Resolving bw15-device dependencies...
  Already up-to-date.
  ERROR ltchiptool not found. ...

Replace pkg install with 'pio run -t idedata'. The idedata target runs
SConscript without the actual compile target, so penv creation (libretiny)
and tool-package install (RP2040) happen as side effects of the SCons
configure phase -- but the build itself is skipped. Cost is a few seconds
of SCons configure, paid once per cold host.

Rename run_pkg_install -> prepare_platform_for_upload to match the new
semantics.
