question: reason for "selfmade" generate_compdb.py

[ccb23]

I am just curious: I just realized that you implemented generate_compdb.py on your own.

So far I was using gen_compile_commands.py from upstream

Is there is anything missing in the upstream solution for your use-case?

This was written earlier than the upstream script.

Last time I checked, the upstream script didn't support separate build directory/out of tree modules.
