Dexoron 5f0dca4bb3 Added:
- `dcr gen` command for IDE integration and build tool support
    - `dcr gen project-info`: Output project metadata as JSON
    - `dcr gen compile-commands`: Generate `compile_commands.json` for clangd and clang-tidy
    - `dcr gen vscode`: Generate VS Code `.vscode/` integration (launch.json, tasks.json, settings.json)
    - `dcr gen clion`: Generate JetBrains CLion `.idea/` integration (run configurations, build targets)
- Full workspace support for all `gen` subcommands

# dcr build
Builds the project in `debug` or `release` profile.
## Usage
```sh
dcr build
dcr build --debug
dcr build --release
dcr build --release --force
dcr build --debug --clean
```
## What `build` does
1. Checks that `dcr.toml` exists and is valid.
2. Reads build settings from `[build]`.
3. Resolves path dependencies from `[dependencies]`.
4. Creates required output directories.
5. Recursively compiles sources from `src/`.
6. Links final artifact (binary or library).
## Config values used
- `package.name`
- `build.compiler`
- `build.language`
- `build.standard`
- `build.kind`
- `build.target`
- `build.platform`
- `build.cflags`
- `build.ldflags`
- `build.debug` / `build.release`
- `build.exclude`
- `build.include`
- `build.pkg_config`
- `build.steps`
- `build.post_steps`
- `build.generated`
- `build.expect`
- `build.clean`
## Source selection
- `language = "c"` -> `*.c`
- `language = "c++" | "cpp" | "cxx"` -> `*.cpp`, `*.cxx`, `*.cc`
- `language = "asm"` -> `*.s`, `*.S`, `*.asm`
- Mixed languages are supported with arrays, for example `language = ["c", "asm"]`.
- By default sources are searched in `src/`; use `build.roots` and `build.src_disable` to override.
## Notes
- The profile is selected from the first argument only.
- Unknown profile flags return an error.
- Incremental rebuild is based on source/object mtime comparison.
- `--force` skips build cache checks and recompiles.
- `--clean` removes `target/<profile>` and `build.clean` paths before building.
- For `language = "asm"` with `compiler = "as"`/`"gas"`, use `.s` files (no preprocessing). For `.S`, use `gcc` or `clang`.
- In workspace root, `dcr build` builds all members in dependency order.
- `build.exclude` removes paths from source/header collection; `build.include` re-allows matching paths and has priority over `exclude`.
- `build.steps` run before compilation; `build.post_steps` run after linking.
- `build.generated` is cleaned when `build.steps` need to rerun; `build.expect` is verified after post-steps.
