Incremental Building with GLI

Description

Since this seems to be a prodigious amount of work, it will be targeted at 2.83.

To carry on with the incremental build work here's what to do:

Go to <Oran's machine> and log in with <Oran's> username, <Oran's password?. My work so far is in the folder 'gsdl' (specifically 'gsdl/gli') on the Desktop. There are also some files on the Desktop named one.txt~seven.txt I've been using for testing. I've been testing on the collection 'test'.

I have added a static boolean variable called isCompleteBuild to the CollectionDesignManager class which keeps track of whether a minimal or complete build was requested (see the code in CreatePanel that sets it from the radio button).

I have mostly fixed importCollection() and buildCollection() in CollectionManager to honour "isCompleteBuild". (Note that I totally removed the argument to buildCollection().)

I think that all that remains to do is to make sure that gli does not try to remove the index directory and rename building to index if the build was "minimal" (i.e., if "isCompleteBuild" is false). I'm not sure exactly where in GLI that happens though.

Also, we have to make sure that .col files (e.g., collect/test/test.col) does not have a line that turns the "removeold " flag, and that there is no gli code that tries to add this line to these files (there is currently some code in CollectionManager that does exactly that!).
