Since the flags for executables are almost always the same as those for
shared libraries each language information file just uses the latter for
the former by default. This reduces duplication in the compiler and
platform flag information files.
CMAKE_ASM_COMPILE_OBJECT is now so that it fits for GNU, Intel, HP and Sun
ASM_ATT had to be adjusted. Also adjusted the default
CMAKE_ASM_LINK_EXECUTABLE

This commit changes the way how the assembler support works in cmake.
The language "ASM" now always uses the C/Cxx compiler instead
of the assembler directly. This fixes#8392, assembler files are
not preprocessed.
If one wants to use the assembler directly, the specific
assembler "dialect" has to be enabled. I.e. to get as/gas,
you have to use now ASM-ATT, the same way for ASM_MASM and ASM_NASM.
Implemented this now for gcc.
SunStudio, IBM, HP and Intel still todo.

For assembler, the "compiler ID" cannot be detected by "compiling" a
source file, since there is not source file all assemblers understand.
Instead the function CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID_VENDOR() is used to
run the assembler and check its output.
For this the CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID_VENDOR() function had to be
extended so that it creates the run directory if it doesn't exist yet.
In CMakeASMInformation.cmake now also CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER_ID is used
(but there are no such files yet, will come with the support for the
IAR toolchain).

This adds copyright/license notification blocks CMake's non-find
modules. Most of the modules had no notices at all. Some had notices
referring to the BSD license already. This commit normalizes existing
notices and adds missing notices.
