Since commit v3.3.0-rc1~62^2~5 (cmTarget: Store only cmListFileContext
for CMP0023 handling, 2015-05-18) a call to target_link_libraries on a
target that was defined in another (non-ancestor) directory crashes
because no execution context is left active. Fix this by getting the
execution context from the actual cmMakefile where the current
target_link_libraries call takes place. Test this by verifying that
such calls correctly produce an error diagnostic instead of crashing.
The <LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET and VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN were first
merged in commit v2.8.12~322 (Merge topic 'VISIBILITY_PRESET-property',
2013-06-05) but worked only for shared libraries and executables with
exports. Prior to commit v3.0.0-rc1~581^2 (GenerateExportHeader:
Deprecate add_compiler_export_flags function., 2013-09-02) the
add_compiler_export_flags function was used to add visibility flags to
all targets.
The visibility flags are useful for sources in all target types because
they may be later linked into shared libraries or executables with
exports. Introduce policy CMP0063 to enable them for all target types
while preserving compatibility with existing projects that do not expect
this.

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.

Replace isLinkDependentProperty with a CompatibleInterfaces structure
that records all the compatible interface properties in a set for each
type. This avoids repeatedly traversing the link implementation closure
and asking every target for its compatible interface properties.
Split the library lists out of LinkImplementation and LinkInterface into
LinkImplementationLibraries and LinkInterfaceLibraries parent classes,
respectively. Return these from GetLinkImplementationLibraries and
GetLinkInterfaceLibraries, respectively, so that callers cannot access
parts of the structures that have not been populated.
The old link dependency analysis is now needed only for the VS 6
generator code delimited by CM_USE_OLD_VS6 to support project-provided
project templates. Rename the related cmTarget members to be "ForVS6".
Implementation of CMP0027 OLD behavior needs to know whether each entry
in LinkImplementation::Libraries came from a generator expression or
not. Add a FromGenex member to cmLinkImplItem to record this.
Create a cmLinkImplItem class derived from cmLinkItem so more
information can be added to link implementation entries than link
interface entries. Convert the LinkImplementation Libraries member to
hold it. Update client sites accordingly.
Add a 'usage_requirements_only' parameter to GetLinkInterfaceLibraries
and supporting internal APIs to pass through to ExpandLinkItems so it
knows whether to use SetTransitivePropertiesOnly while evaluating
generator expressions.
Add a 'usage_requirements_only' parameter to ExpandLinkItems so that it
knows whether to use SetTransitivePropertiesOnly while evaluating
generator expressions. Update existing call sites to pass 'false' since
they are for linking and not usage requirements.
Instead of storing just the string names in these structures, lookup any
target associated with each item and store its cmTarget pointer. Use
the cmLinkItem class to hold the name and pointer together. Update
client sites to use the pre-stored lookup result instead of looking up
the target name again.
Create a cmTarget::LookupLinkItems helper method to handle the lookup.
Since lookups are now moving from cmComputeLinkDepends::AddLinkEntries
to cmTarget::LookupLinkItems, move use of CheckCMP0004 to the latter.
This drops use of CheckCMP0004 from entries added for _LIB_DEPENDS
variables by cmComputeLinkDepends::AddVarLinkEntries, but I do not
think that use was intentional originally anyway.
Add a method like GetUtilities but that provides the target names
already looked up and resolved to cmTarget pointers internally. Update
call site in cmComputeTargetDepends::AddTargetDepend to use the
already-found target instead of looking it up again.
Many items named in target_link_libraries calls are targets, but not
all. Create a cmLinkItem type that acts like std::string so it can name
an item but also has a pointer to a cmTarget that is the result of
looking up the item name in the referencing target's scope. This will
be useful to avoid duplicate lookup operations later.
Move generator expression evaluation for imported library lists out of
GetImportInfo and into a new GetImportLinkInterface helper. This avoids
duplicating the computation and storage of all imported target info just
because some of it is parameterized on the 'head' target.
Many of the 'head' arguments added by commit v2.8.11~289^2~1 (Make
linking APIs aware of 'head' target, 2013-01-04) turned out not to be
needed. The "link implementation" of a target never needs to be
computed with anything but itself as the 'head' target (except for
CMP0022 OLD behavior because then it is the link interface).
Remove the unused 'head' target paths. Add "internal" versions of
cmTarget::GetDirectLinkLibraries and GetLinkImplementationLibraries
to support the CMP0022 OLD behavior without otherwise exposing the
'head' target option of these methods.
Create an ExpandLinkItems method to handle evaluation of generator
expressions in a library list and expansion of the ;-list into a vector.
Replace some duplicate copies of the implementation with calls to the
new helper.
