support transformers with an unknown number of outputs
To support different types of nodes in the build graph, we introduce
the base class BuildGraphNode. Artifact now derives from BuildGraphNode.
A RuleNode class is introduced that represents a rule in the build graph.
Rules are applied in the build phase and not in a pre-build phase
anymore.
The handling of moc has been revisited. The fixed automoc pre-build
phase is no more.
This is the squashed merge of a feature branch.
