editorintegration

Turns the Editor Integration feature on. This is simply a hint to the action to add extra information into the generated workspace that allows an IDE to know which/where and how premake was executed. This is currently really only implemented for the Visual Studio action, but other actions may use this too in the future.

There is a plugin that allows re-execution of the premake step from within Visual Studio, which can be found here: https://github.com/tvandijck/PremakeExtension
