The continuous command recompiles the setting graph into a CompiledMap
data structure so that it can determine which files it needs to
transitively monitor during watch. Generating the CompiledMap can be
very slow for large projects (5 seconds or so on my computer in the sbt
project) and this startup cost is paid every time the user enters a
watch with `~`. To avoid this, we can cache the compile map that is
generated during the initial settings evaluation.
The only real drawback I can see is that the compiled map is guaranteed
to remain in memory so long as the BuildStructure instance that holds it
is alive. Given the performance benefit, this seems like a worthwhile
tradeoff.

This adds unified slash syntax for both sbt shell and the build.sbt DSL.
Instead of the current `<project-id>/config:intask::key`,
this adds `<project-id>/<config-ident>/intask/key` where <config-ident> is the Scala identifier notation for the configurations like `Compile` and `Test`.
This also adds a series of implicits called `SlashSyntax` that adds `/` operators to project refererences, configuration, and keys such that the same syntax works in build.sbt.
These examples work for both from the shell and in build.sbt.

The inspect command now outputs something that can be copy-pasted:

Looks like the reason that util-cache depended on util-collection was to
define the sjson-new formats (HListFormats) for util-collection's HList.
Given that util-collection already depends on sjsonnew, HListFormats can
also be defined in util-collection.
All that was left then was (a) HListFormatSpec requires
sjsonnewScalaJson, so that was added in test scope, and (b) HListFormats
had to be dropped from sbt.util.CacheImplicits - HListFormats will have
to be imported and/or mixed-in where required downstream. For importing
convenience I defined a companion object.
Uses TypeTag to recover the full name of type parameter, which is calculated by StringTypeTag. This is sent along in ObjectEvent.
On the other end, we can lookup typeclass instances using the tag key.
