[swift-build-dev] Hello SPM

I’ve exported all of the metadata with all our current knowledge about libraries in the Cocoa ecosystem.

I don’t necessarily expect any of this to be essential in terms of decisions making, but I think that this can be useful to understand things like: licensing, language shifts, file sizes etc. We use these values for generating our Quality Estimates, which do some of the things you want to do in the future.

We use this for providing ways in which libraries can improve after they’ve been shipped, by basing the search ranking off this number.
