build size report improvements

[unitycoder]

• cannot see the total size report (which is available on editor log)
• could add search box (to quickly search if certain file gets included in the build)
• sort by filetype column (image, script, prefab, ...)
• keep previous build size(s), so can compare *data is already in the editor.log (if didnt close unity, so could read multiple build reports from it, and allow displaying, comparing them)
• aldd open explorer (context menu or double click) for each file
• show image file resolution? (might be slow though..)
• save build report datagrid column sizes to preferences
• Keyboard controls for build report datagrid (Enter = Open, CTRL+C = copy path, F5 = Reload, ..)
• BUG: cannot read buildreport if unity has locked, file
• buttons to view previous/next build report (note: but need to refresh build reports, if new one is added after previously parsed reports, or would need to parse all reports again, everytime?)
• show build timestamp for currently selected build report (so that user knows if this is latest) *there is no timestamp info..
• error checking: if press get report during build, then cannot find end string for report?
• show streamingassets data size
• fix open build report item (since now uses array, old path doesn't work anymore)
• parse project path for each build report (otherwise cannot open file there)
• handle this log message "Information on used Assets is not available, since player data was not rebuilt. Do a clean build to view the Asset build report information."
• iterate streaming assets files and add into main report? (but then need to recalculate % values for all..)
• handle log files with timestamps? (if they appear here when enabled) *not affected
• show build elapsed time
• streaming assets folder size can be only displayed for latest build report (because older reports might have different files there) *or calculate from total build size, unless there are other hidden data that might be added to it?

ideas for later:

• save build history into custom txt file, inside ProjectSettings/, then can see full history, (build duration, size, ...) and can use that info for estimated build time in batch builder *this should be editor script, onpostprocess build it outputs those values (and more info) into single file
• option: add custom editor script to projects, that records build stats inside some folder, so can keep proper history

good enough for now, can add more later..

*separate Editor based build report comparing tool should appear here https://github.com/unitycoder/UnityBuildStats

ideas:

• allow multiselection, and show total calculated size for selected objects
