treated as PRE_LINK by non-VS generators will now imply this restriction
for PRE_BUILD too.

Brad King 2c470b775a add_library: Allow arbitrary non-linked sources in OBJECT libraries
Loosen this restriction on OBJECT libraries to allow source files of any
name to be generated by custom commands or listed for reference in IDE
projects so long as they would not affect linking of a normal library.
Update the rejection message to be more specific about the looser
restriction.

Extend the ObjectLibrary test to cover a ".cmake" file generated by a
custom command in an OBJECT library.

Brad King d19b64d671 install(DIRECTORY): Add MESSAGE_NEVER option to avoid output (#13761)
Installing large directories, e.g., the output of a doxygen run, prints
one line per file resulting in too much noise in the build output.  Add
an option to the install(DIRECTORY) command to not print anything upon
make install.

Extend the RunCMake.install test with cases covering MESSAGE_NEVER
behavior of the install(DIRECTORY) command.

Brad King c9568de52c install: Add CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE variable (#13761)
Create a variable to allow users to control which installation
messages are printed.  In particular, provide a "LAZY" setting
that prints "Installing" messages but not "Up-to-date" messages.
This is desirable for incremental re-installations.

Brad King 907e422bc8 Help: Explain build/install-tree include dirs in more places (#14946)
Explain how to use $<BUILD_INTERFACE> and $<INSTALL_INTERFACE> directly
in the documentation of the target_include_directories command and
INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES target property.  Otherwise readers need
to notice the link to the cmake-buildsystem(7) manual and find the
example in that to understand the need for these expressions.

Also fix the explanation in cmake-buildsystem(7) to not claim that
relative paths may be used inside a BUILD_INTERFACE expression.

implicitly can lead to results which are surprising or non-obvious
to debug.

set can be extended later.

Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.

Daniele E. Domenichelli be8ae96098 Allow the Package Registry to be disabled (#14849)
When a project is packaged for redistribution the local package
registries should not be updated or consulted.  They are for developers.

Add variables to disable use of package registries globally:

* CMAKE_EXPORT_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY that disables the export(PACKAGE)
  command
* CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY that disables the User Package
  Registry in all the find_package calls.
* CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_SYSTEM_PACKAGE_REGISTRY that disables the
  System Package Registry in all the find_package calls.

Update documentation and unit tests.

Stephen Kelly 8ed59fc207 Add target_compile_features command.
This can be used to set the compiler features required by particular
targets. An error is issued at CMake time if the compiler does not
support the required feature. If a language dialect flag is required
by the features used, that will be added automatically.

Base the target_compile_features command on cmTargetPropCommandBase. This
gives us 'free' handling of IMPORTED, ALIAS, INTERFACE, non-compilable
and missing targets.

Stephen Kelly e5da9e51d0 cmTarget: Allow any generator expression in SOURCES property.
Remove use of UseObjectLibraries from Makefile and Ninja generators. It
is not needed now because those generators use GetExternalObjects
which already contains the objects from object libraries.

The VS10 generator calls both the UseObjectLibraries and the GetExternalObjects
methods. Ensure that duplicates are not created by skipping objects
from object libraries in handling of GetExternalObjects.

Similarly, fix VS6, VS7 and Xcode object handling by skipping
external objects from OBJECT_LIBRARY usage as appropriate.

The error message in the BadSourceExpression1 test is now reported
by the generator expression evaluator, so it has different text.
