Added compilation database support for clang and gcc

This tool is originally from mongodb.

- Updated CPPSUFFIXES to use scons suffixes
- objective-c files will also be loaded into the compilation database where the compiler / tooling is available to compile the files.

Known limitations:

- This will not work with msvc as your compiler.
