Brad King 882f48e5ba Link libraries by full path even in implicit directories
When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by
full path.  However, some projects had problems on platforms where
find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really
wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by
accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link.

We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library
to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by
returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories.  This
caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a
full path.  We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (...
switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l,
2008-01-31).  However, the special case for libraries in implicit link
directories has also proven problematic and confusing.

Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path
even if they are in implicit link directories.  Explain in the policy
documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to
this approach.

Matt McCormick 9160d6c241 TestGenerator: Add CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR support.
Prefix test commands with the CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR property
for target executables. This allows test suites to be run on the host
when crosscompiling.

Matt McCormick e942526b3d try_run: Use CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR.
If the CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR variable is defined, and
CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING is TRUE, then use CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR to run
the try_run executables. This prevents the need to populate
TryRunResults.cmake when cross compiling.

Matt McCormick 579c4bec6e Properties: Add CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR target property.
Add CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR target property for executables. This is used by
subsequent patches to run exectuables created for the target system when
crosscompiling. The property is initialized by the
CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR variable when defined.

Brad King 6ed6ef6237 Help: Split cmake-generators(7) into linkable subsections
Many places in our documentation refer to "Makefile Generators" or
"Visual Studio" generators as a group of generators.  Give such
places a linkable document section to reference since they cannot
cross-reference the individual generators in the groups.

Brad King 3af137824d Help: Update discussion of relocable packages in cmake-packages(7)
Explain at the beginning of the section the requirements for a package
to be relocatable to justify the rest of the section content.
Generalize example to use fictional package names instead of real ones,
especially because FindBoost provides no alternative yet.  Reword the
discussion to represent the preferred approach as "ideal" but also
suggest workarounds when find modules do not provide the imported
targets.

Brad King 227992c3a6 Help: Reorganize and refine discussion of relocatable packages
Re-organize the content added to the cmake-packages(7) manual by

* commit v3.0.0-rc1~184^2 (Help: Document export(EXPORT) in the
  cmake-packages manual, 2013-12-23),

* commit v3.0.0-rc1~154^2~1 (Help: Add notes about relocatability
  of config-file packages, 2014-01-07), and

* commit v3.2.0-rc1~345^2 (Help: Warn that paths should not be used
  in INTERFACE_ build properties, 2014-11-22).

These commits broke the natural flow of the original manual and made
wording after the new content make less sense.  Move the content into
new subsections to restore the flow of the original manual and to
make explicitly the purpose of the new content.

Shorten the relocatable usage requirement "warnings".  Refer to the
new cmake-packages(7) manual subsection to reduce duplication.  Also
clarify the distinction between paths to library dependencies and
paths to their header files.

James Bigler 7fea2b77df FindCUDA: Use the static CUDA runtime library if available (#15482)
Beginning in CUDA 5.5 a static version of the cuda runtime library
became available.  Since nvcc defaults to using this library over the
shared version, FindCUDA will also default to using this version.  There
are many advantages to using the static version (most importantly to
avoid conflicts with multiple versions when building a CUDA based
library).  Offer a CUDA_USE_STATIC_CUDA_RUNTIME option to control
this behavior.
