subject NSC should support cancel of resident compiler run.
code
what happened
Right now, there is no way to cancel a resident compilation run after it has started. We need this feature if we\
 are to support the cancel button. We have to figure out when it is safe to abort (between phases?) and how to c\
leanup when abort occurs.

You can now cancel the compiler by calling
  global.currentRun.cancel
The compiler will stop once it reaches the end of the current phase on the currently compiled unit.
