Improve library finding + custom profile name + updated readme

Improves library finding by pretending to compile a c file (dummy.c
must exist).

Now that rust-lang/cargo#6988 is in stable, use "colcon" as a custom
profile name. Closes #2.

Use of IDL_PACKAGE_FILTER exemplified in README.md. Closes #3

+To keep builds performed by colcon separate, `r2r_cargo` *expects a custom profile called `colcon` to exist*. See <https://github.com/m-dahl/r2r_minimal_node/blob/master/r2r_minimal_node/Cargo.toml> for an example.

 ## Building using only cargo
 
 Another option is to build the message package first, then sourcing the resulting workspace. When `r2r_minimal_node_msgs` is sourced, the r2r build script will automatically pick up the custom messages (it defaults to building everything).
 
+To avoid building everything, it is possible to declare only the messages needed using the environment variable `IDL_PACKAGE_FILTER`. Setting this can be done in `.cargo/config.toml` for convenience, e.g. <https://github.com/m-dahl/r2r_minimal_node/blob/master/r2r_minimal_node/.cargo/config.toml>
