Massive jump in timeTemplates

Hi,

Message:
- Moved some of the debug information to reading the generated xml-file instead of compiling it into the C-code

timeTemplates is now 10 times bigger!

In case of Pendulum_20, I get with r15072

    timeFrontend = 3.5285706579897513
    timeBackend = 10.583999095187966,
    timeSimCode = 1.3463234181014607,
    timeTemplates = 7.726527522816053
    timeCompile = 7.073520501822674,

with r15071 I get

    timeFrontend = 3.486143325706232,
    timeBackend = 10.64029406391105,
    timeSimCode = 1.3594884331961614,
    timeTemplates = 0.7164336485675259,
    timeCompile = 9.581373052261595,

A 2 second decrease in compile time caused a 7 second increase in translation time.

It has probably to do with the new line in SimCodeMain.mo

Tpl.tplNoret(SimCodeDump.dumpSimCode, simCode);

I am very much in favor of reducing the compile time, but maybe this function can be improved?

If you add a flag to disable dumpElementSource for the C-target, you generate a file ~18 times smaller for EngineV6 (107MB vs 5.8MB). This information needs to be preserved for the Dump target (and for debugging). For simulations in general it could possibly be ok to disable generating this info.

[Christian Schubert]

we have currently no resources for doing this. But it should be fixed before the 1.9.0 release.

Actually, it's already been completed
