Description
Reported by user in issue https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-makefile-tools/issues/499. Have available some useful targets from the multitude of targets defined in the makefile.
We could select via a list of edit boxes which ones are of interest (this ties also with the work item of being able to select more than one target to build, could be the same list), then display a list of buttons (number varies, name of target as button title) in the UI panel lower area.
