Which allow passing arguments specifically to the static or shared
libraries.
For design, this is all handled in the interpreter, by the build layer
the arguments are combined into the existing fields. This limits changes
required in the mid and backend layers
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
As any child of BuildTargetHolder might need the name of the object,
provides a method to get object name.
This is useful in gst-build to display the plugin name and not
the filename.
Otherwise if the list of sources changes on reconfigure after building,
the static library will contain both the old and new objects.
