The current pull request doesn't need such a thing as it doesn't
include the dub tool. I believe the tests in place do cover the new
builder. I am just doing the documentation side of things – the D tool
XML files were inadequate, so as requested I am getting them 'ship
shape' as part of this pull request.

I'll address the issue of executable discovery in the D tools as a
separate pull request, to avoid interference with the addition of the
new builder.

When I get to the dub pull request, I hope to have tests in place that
cover all this – I am just getting onto doing proper tests for the dub
tool. All the email exchanges have been very helpful on that front.
