Sharpmake 0.15.0

Important notes

• This release of sharpmake is one of the most important we've ever done since
  we switched to roslyn to allow support for recent C# versions (up to version 7) in your sharpmake files!

• Support for double quotes when invoking sharpmake will be dropped soon, so please replace them with single quotes as soon as possible.

  For example:

    Sharpmake.Application.exe /sources("main.sharpmake.cs")
  

  needs to be changed to

    Sharpmake.Application.exe /sources('main.sharpmake.cs')
