📄 Description

This change introduces new --out-dir command line argument for UMK. The main motivation behind it is to isolate the build to avoid problems. Last week I had an issue when project builds fine with TheIDE, but there were linking problem when building it on Mac. Cleaning cache directory helped to solve this problem. Also, with this change you can specify output directory within repo directory and thanks to that we can force to rebuild the whole project by simply removing build directory.

While 'a' option is useful when you are using umk directly in your terminal, it is less handy when using the build automation tools such as Makefiles or Justfiles.

Usage example:

3p/umk/umk.out ./,3p/uppsrc UppTerm 3p/umk/CLANG.bm \
    --hub-dir 3p/hub \
    --out-dir build/cache \
    -br +GUI,SHARED build/upp-term

To force rebuild, just run

rm -rf build/cache

I was also considering --cache-dir, but in the end decided to stay with --out-dor. Please let me know if you have any concerns about naming convention.
