Incremental compilation (IC): Improvements (#11881)
* IC: C codegen is aware of IC * manual: minor change to make VSCode's RST plugin render it properly * IC: minor refactoring * testament: code refactorings * rodutils: removed dead code * IC: always build the compiler with the IC feature * IC: C codegen improvements * IC: implement the undocumented -d:nimMustCache option for testing purposes * IC: added first basic tests * IC: extensive testing of the deserialization feature * testament: refactoring; better IC tests * IC: removes 'nimMustCache' flag; readonly does the same * testament: minor refactoring * update Nimble version * testament: removed dead code and imports; IC: added simple test * IC: progress
