Hello, This patch adds a few visual improvements to `package-menu-mode`.

This add a new mode-line for package-menu which displays information
about: Total packages installed, Total packages from all the packages
archive, Total packages to upgrade and Total new packages available.

And highlight packages marked for installation or deletion.
I find this useful as the characters/tags can go unnoticed.

Here is a screenshot of the result:

Thanks, installed on the master branch (with a couple of followup
