Dlang incremental build support

[Mergull]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I've tried to compile one of my projects with xmake. Project setup is really nice and easy. Problem is that xmake doesn't support dependencies for incremental building for Dlang. This leads to requirement for full rebuild everytime something changed (what is really bad for big projects).

Describe the solution you'd like

Only changed files and files which depend on them should be recompiled.
Both DMD and LDC has "-makedeps" option which produce makefile compatible dependency information (so it can be used to get that kind of information).

Describe alternatives you've considered

try this patch. #3487

xmake update -s github:xmake-io/xmake#dlang

That's was quick! From brief testing it looks that incremental building is working now. Thanks!
