This policy should be checked at the call site that tries to access the
LOCATION property, not the directory scope containing the target.
Thread the caller context through cmTarget::GetProperty to use for
checking the policy setting and emitting a diagnostic with proper
backtrace.
Extend the RunCMake.CMP0026 test with a cross-directory case.
The final location and name of a build-target is not determined
until generate-time. However, reading the LOCATION property from
a target is currently allowed at configure time. Apart from creating
possibly-erroneous results, this has an impact on the implementation
of cmake itself, and prevents some major cleanups from being made.
Disallow reading LOCATION from build-targets with a policy. Port some
existing uses of it in CMake itself to use the TARGET_FILE generator
expression.
