How do you set up the dub.json to build the library normally but 
when it is invoked with `dub test` it runs a separate 
configuration that also includes files in the `source/test` 
folder, but are excluded when not testing.

If thats not possible how does one specify that `source/test` 
should not be built when building a library and only 
`source/test` should be built when doing tests, but the tester 
depend in the library?

Thanks
