Feature: add new output format mindmaster txt & raw xml #41

Add some formats for dynamically visualizing graphs with a large number of nodes

Use the 1.4.5 u-boot for comparison:

The png image output by the dot command is too large and cluttered with lines:

Xml format is used to represent the relationship of the dependency tree, and nodes can be dynamically expanded or collapsed. Or import a txt file into MindMaster to do the same.

Hi , thank you so much for the pull request. Unfortunately , I won't accept any more custom graph format. The tool already outputs like GEXF+XML format and it's quite simple to convert it to something else using a simple XSLT stylesheet.
