Dumping of referenced assets does not work currently. The linker will be stuck in an infinite loop when calling DB_FindXAssetHeader.

#20 temporarly fixes it with removing the code that tries to dumping referenced assets. This should maybe be fixed and reimplemented.

Dumping referenced assets can be fixed by using DB_EnumXAssetsInternal instead. This function does not wait for the database thread to be ready.

Dumping referenced assets should eventually be done for every linker, so that you do not have to pre-dump specific fastfiles like common_mp and code_post_gfx_mp for additional assets (techsets for example)
