Since commit v2.8.11~213^2 (Ninja: Avoid LNK1170 linker error, 2013-02-01)
we generate linker response files with "$in_newline" to support a large
number of object files with the MS link.exe tool. However, the GNU linker
on Windows does not understand the newline endings that Ninja puts in the
response files. Switch back to "$in" for that case.
Check for CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_MINGW only after enabling a language when it
might actually be set. Previously this worked by accident because the
check for working compiler or a second language enabled would cause the
code path to be taken.
Store UsingMinGW as an instance member of cmGlobalNinjaGenerator so that
it is reset on each reconfigure. Otherwise cmake-gui cannot switch
between build trees for MinGW or non-MinGW tools.
Revert the refactoring by commit v2.8.11~105^2~1 (Ninja: use MinGW
generator code in EnableLanguage, 2013-03-09) and move the MinGW-
specific logic back to the "MinGW Makefiles" generator. Instead teach
the platform information modules for GNU and MSVC on Windows to set the
preferred RC compiler just before enabling the RC language. This way
we choose the RC compiler based on the C/C++ toolchain that is actually
enabled.

Since commit 80909041 (cmMakefile: Disable copy constructor, 2015-04-18)
the only call to cmMakefile::Initialize is in one constructor. Inline
it and drop the separate method.
In commit 86f3cd0f (cmMakefile: Require the localGenerator in the
constructor, 2015-04-27) we added use of GetDefinition to the
Initialize method. Set SuppressWatches before calling this method
since GetDefinition checks it.
When Configure is executed multiple times with the same cmake
instance (either using CTest --two-config or a interactive gui), the
location and structural data was preserved though it would not be used
again. Fix that by clearing the data in a method called early in
the configure step.
