Confusion over skip-compilation option

[jgfoster]

As described in REFERENCE.md, this framework will (compile and) run all the code in the test directory on the developer's desktop/laptop against the mock Arduino board. Then, as a separate task an attempt is made to build everything in the examples directory using the Arduino IDE (which has different includes and a different compiler) so as to avoid later surprises due to the different build environment and target. These tasks are very reasonable and distinct, but I was confused by the names.

I spent a lot of time fiddling with test code to get the unit tests to compile and run and the idea that I'm running the unit tests without compiling seems very odd. Now that I'm understanding better I wonder if "compilation of examples" would be a better phrase (even though it is more verbose).

So, the command line option --skip-compilation would probably remain but would be deprecated in favor of --skip-compilation-of-examples or simply --skip-examples (more analogous to --skip-unittests).

I'll probably do --skip-examples-compilation, this is a great suggestion
