[Dart] dart and clean build

[William A. Hoffman]

Well, the clean on windows does not work right because msdev removed the 
.dsp files,
because it knows how to build them.    The best "clean" for all platforms 
with cmake, is
to build out of source, and remove the entire binary tree.   I really think 
it should be up to the
person running the build to decide on clean or not and how it is done, and 
not Dart.
For small projects, a clean every time would work fine, for larger ones, 
people may not want
to clean as much.
