/**
 * Helper class to represent "evaluated" phony target: it contains the NestedSet with all non-phony
 * inputs to the phony target (with Artifacts for the real computation, and PathFragments for the
 * tests); and it contains the flag whether this phony target is always dirty, i.e. must be rebuild
 * each time.
 *
 * <p>Always-dirty phony targets are those which do not have any inputs: "build alias: phony". All
 * usual direct dependants of those actions automatically also always-dirty (but not the transitive
 * dependants: they should check whether their computed inputs have changed). As phony targets are
 * not performing any actions, <b>all phony transitive dependants of always-dirty phony targets are
 * themselves always-dirty.</b> That is why we can compute the always-dirty flag for the phony
 * targets, and use it for marking their direct non-phony dependants as actions to be executed
 * unconditionally.
 *
 * @param <T> either Artifact or PathFragment
