Remove dub cache in subsirectories:

     module dubcache;

     // Reason:
     //   each cache take 50 - 200 MB of disk space
     // Goal:
     //   scan dirs and remove caches
     //
     // ./
     //   a/
     //   b/
     //     .dub/  <- target
     //   c/

     import std;

     void main( string[] args )
     {
         dirEntries( args[0].dirName, SpanMode.shallow )
             .filter!( a => a.isDir )
             .map!( a => buildPath( a.name, ".dub" ) )
             .filter!( a => a.exists )
             .each!(
                 ( a )
                 {
                     writeln( a );
                     rmdirRecurse( a );
                 }
             );
     }
