Use libSass for better performance #27

Instead of spawning an external process, libSass could be used for better performance. JNA bindings are available here.

Libsass currently only uses Sass 3.2 when version Sass 3.4 is the latest release.

Whilst libsass is faster, if sbt-sass were to swap to libsass right now, I wouldn't be able to use it.

I've had a similar issue. We wanted to use this plugin at work, but unfortunately, corporate IT didn't allow us to install sass/ruby. Therefore, I reimplemented this plugin myself. I've called my plugin sbt-sassify. This uses libsass version 3.2.

Furthermore, I've included several fixes/features:

Working incremental compilation with included files;
Working source maps;
Automatic syntax (sass/scss) detection.
