Add sanitizers support

[AbdullahAmrSobh]

Currently you can't generate projects with any type of sanitizers enabled I suggest, to add the ability to generate projects with sanitizers enabled.

What problem will this solve? Sanitizers help with detecting a lot of bugs and issues, that occurs at runtime.

I agree this would be a nice feature, but in the meantime this is the solution I use

-- Add new command line option
newoption {
   trigger     = "Sanitizer",
   value       = "Tool",
   description = "A sanitizer to add to the build",
   allowed     = {
      { "Asan", "Address Sanitizer"}
   }
}

-- Register api command
premake.api.register{
   name="enableASAN",
   scope="config",
   kind="string",
   allowed={"true", "false"}
}

premake.override(premake.vstudio.vc2010, "configurationProperties", function(base, cfg)
   local m = premake.vstudio.vc2010
   m.propertyGroup(cfg, "Configuration")
   premake.callArray(m.elements.configurationProperties, cfg)
   if cfg.enableASAN then
      m.element("EnableASAN", nil, cfg.enableASAN)
   end
   premake.pop('</PropertyGroup>')
end)

-- later on.....
local sanitizer = _OPTIONS["Sanitizer"]
if(sanitizer and sanitizer == "Asan") then
    flags{ "NoRuntimeChecks", "NoIncrementalLink"}
    editAndContinue "Off"
    -- Add new api command
    filter {"kind:ConsoleApp OR WindowedApp"}
        enableASAN "true"
    filter {}
end   

Then when invoking premake if you add the parameter --Sanitizer=Asan

Note: ASAN cannot be enabled on static libraries as the LInkIncremental value cannot be set as false on them, and will cause a build error

EDIT: Sorry, I should also specify this would only work on MSVC, as it's the only platform I'm currently working on, a cross-platform solution would be much nicer

Bumping this, as it's not sufficient to just add buildoptions "/fsanitize=address" (this has different behavior than Enable Address Sanitizer). See https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Asan-cannot-find-DLL-only-when-specified/1594652 for details.
