Feature Request: html/gwt cache warnings

[payne911]

A few pitfalls when trying to target the HTML platform is that editing the GWT XML file in the html module will not be detected as a modification affecting the cache: one has to manually delete both the build and war folders to trigger the proper compilation of the change.

Apparently, a simple gradlew clean does not end up cleaning the war folder, so that's yet another pitfall.

What if there was a warning coming from this plugin whenever the GWT XML file is modified?

That's a good idea. When I'm done with improving and fixing the parsing of JSON, I will look into that.

I think I have it working. Can you try it out? Also, do you have a suggestion for what the popup should say? The current text (*.gwt.xml files have been changed. The module needs a full rebuild.) is not great.

Very sorry for not coming back to you. I'm very occupied with some personal matter, these days.

I had asked for others to check it out on the libGDX Discord but the only feedback I got was that you should come hang out in the server. (Yes, I know you're not specifically interested in that, and I linked them to here.)

I now see you've actually pushed a release for it, so thanks for your efforts! :)
