Description
Particularly when people are learning about Paket, they test this with a single e.g. executable project. To make life as simple as possible, I propose that calling paket add should automatically add the dependency if there is a single project in the folder - even if it doesn't yet have a paket.references file.

Research direction
Start at the paket add command entry point and trace how projects and paket.references files are selected. Investigate the single-project case described in the issue. Done means that running paket add in a folder with one project adds the dependency even when that project has no existing paket.references file.
