(Adding asdf-devel as destination.)

It is cool. I think it deserves to be published.
But I don't think the already way too big asdf.lisp is the right place.
Our goal is to keep asdf.lisp itself minimal, and move anything not
strictly needed for system bootstrap into extensions.
At the same time, we don't yet have an "official" repository for such
extensions.
Maybe it's time to start one.
Any taker?
