Publish

After editing resources in Cocos Studio, you need to publish them if you want to use them in Cocos 2d-x. In Cocos Studio, project files are stored in .xml format. After publishing, some unnecessary data will be removed from the project file.
and at the same time.xml file is transferred into FlatBuffers and JSON, which are faster and memory efficient.
