Incremental compilation needs to be turned off. Also added the other RUSTFLAGS that should/need to be turned on.

 Once you've built and run your program, files with the `gcno` (after build) and `gcda` (after execution) extensions will be created.
 You can parse them with [llvm-cov gcov](https://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/llvm-cov.html#llvm-cov-gcov) or [grcov](https://github.com/mozilla/grcov).

+Please note that `RUSTFLAGS` apply to everything that cargo builds and runs during a build, including build scripts!
+To avoid this, pass a `RUSTC_WRAPPER` program to cargo that only adds the profiling flags to rustc for the specific 
+crates you want to profile.
