Description
The compile --package options expects to compile any libraries listed under the exe section of pubspec.yaml.
If no exes are found we need to report this fact as current it just completes with no details of why it did't
compile anything.

Research direction
Start at the compile --package command and trace how the exe section of pubspec.yaml is read and handled when it contains no executables. Run the command with a package that has no exes; done means it clearly reports that no executables were found instead of completing without details.
