[MCOMPILER-178] add List parameter compilerArgs Add List parameter compilerArgs which only uses values of configuration XML elements. Deprecate Map parameter compilerArguments because 1. it adds "-" in front of the key and "=" between key and value which is an implicit assumption on argument syntax that is generally is not desired 2. ultimately since the XML element name is used as key, certain characters not allowed in XML element can't be used and there is no way to escape these characters in XML The new parameter allows to escape unallowed XML characters e.g. using <![CDATA[my special weird non-XML valid argument]]> since only the text body of the XML element is used as argument to pass to the compiler.
