Sharpmake 0.18.0

Important notes

• Starting with this release, sharpmake is now built with net5, and requires the related runtime to run.
• We still provide a .net 472 version just in case, but it is to be considered legacy
• With net5 we provide one sharpmake release per OS, since the executables are now native apps
• With net5, string.GetHashCode() will return a different result every time the app is ran. For that reason, we've introduced an extension method in sharpmake: GetDeterministicHashCode(), that keeps the old behavior

Deprecation warnings

• Deprecate old DotNetFramework that are not supported by MS anymore: 4.0, 4.5, 4.5 clientprofile (which didn't work since 4.5 didn't have a client profile version...), and 4.5.1 ea47e68f

Sharpmake 0.17.0

Important notes

The way file extensions are handle have changed in this version!
Sharpmake's previous behavior was that extensions could be given without a leading dot, for instance exe or dll, and sharpmake added it itself.
This created some issues when we wanted an empty extension, for instance on linux.

Sharpmake now expects you to write the full extension, so for instance .exe or .dll.
To make that obvious, all the extensions variables have been renamed to be prefixed by "Full", or made Obsolete.

Example, if before you were using StaticLibraryFileExtension, you now need to use StaticLibraryFileFullExtension.
