c65a060e CMakeDetermineCompilerId: Optionally try some flags before no flags
At least some versions (e.g. C++ Builder 5) of the bcc32 linker are known to
write temporary files with a constant name to the current directory (e.g.
"turboc.$ln"). (This can be verified by using Process Monitor to watch the
file writes that bcc32 / ilink32 / implib make). This causes problems with
some generators that keep a constant current directory and run concurrent
linkers.
For example, the Ninja generator, by default, always has the current directory
set to the top of the build tree - resulting in conflicts between the linkers
that are simultaneously trying to write to "turboc.$ln". Symptoms include
direct errors regarding the "turboc.$ln" file, or later build steps failing due
to corrupted output from previous links that happened to link "successfully."
This is not a problem for the Borland Makefiles generator which does not
run jobs in parallel. For the Ninja generator, work around this problem
by using a link job pool of size 1.
The Concurrent Fortran compiler (ccur.com) is available on Linux and can
be used much like the GNU Fortran compiler. Currently it has no
preprocessor symbols to identify it so we need to detect it by matching
compiler output.

Some compilers can only be distinguished by their compilation output
rather than preprocessor symbols or special flags. Add infrastructure
to determine the compiler id by matching output.
Callers of CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID initialize the
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILER_ID to unset so we can check it at the end of each
loop iteration instead of the beginning. This approach allows us to
break out of the loop as soon as we succeed. It will also allow checks
to be added in more places within the loop later.
Teach CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID to optionally try detecting the
compiler id using some given flags before trying to detect it with no
special flags. This will be useful for Fortran detection to distinguish
some compilers that use the preprocessors of others but have no macro of
their own by getting verbose output.
Teach the module to handle SYSCONFDIR and LOCALSTATEDIR properly if
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is set to `/` or `/usr` -- i.e. as expected by GNU
Coding Standard (i.e. set SYSCONFDIR to `/etc` and `LOCALSTATEDIR` to
`/var`). Also if CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is set to /opt/pkg, `SYSCONFDIR`
must be set to `/etc/opt/pkg` and `LOCALSTATEDIR` to `/var/opt/pkg`
according to FHS.
Otherwise using a "cc -> ccache" or similar symlink as the compiler
causes FindCUDA to select ccache as the host compiler. Update the logic
added by commit v3.1.0-rc1~354^2 (FindCUDA: Fix OSX Clang & no C
language enabled, 2014-06-12) to apply only in the specific case it is
needed.
Revert commit v3.3.0-rc1~435^2 (Windows-GNU: Do not tell find_library to
treat '.dll' as linkable, 2015-02-18). MinGW tools support linking to
'.dll' files directly and many non-CMake build systems still do not
provide a separate '.dll.a' file.
In commit v3.3.0-rc1~132^2 (FindwxWidgets: Search for wx-config-3.0 in
addition to wx-config, 2015-04-29) we added a second (versioned) name to
the find_program call. Specifying multiple names requires use of the
NAMES option. Add it now. While at it, also add versioned names for
2.9 and 2.8.
Check for this flag explicitly in the --help output before using it. It
turns out there are some versions of the tool that support --version but
not --ignore-missing-info.
Honor the GIT_SUBMODULES option added by commit v3.0.0-rc1~92^2
(ExternalProject: Add option GIT_SUBMODULES, 2014-01-09) during the
'git submodule init' step to avoid initalizing all modules since we
are only going to update the specified subset anyway. This will
be useful for project repositories that have many submodules
(e.g. https://github.com/boostorg/boost).

Use PATH_SUFFIXES to search more common packaging locations.
On Windows, we can use suffixes to search in the standard Program Files
locations without hard-coding the C:/ path.
On Ubuntu/Debian, starting with PostgreSQL 9.3 the header file pg_type.h
is moved to a separate package (from libpq-dev to postgresql-server-dev)
and consequently the file pg_type.h is moved to a new location:
/usr/include/postgresql/<version>/server/catalog/pg_type.h
While at it, use separate PATH_SUFFIXES variables for library, type and
include (this is merely an optimization).
These cache entries introduced by commit 892b854f (FindBoost: Search for
debug and release libraries separately, 2015-01-26) should be marked as
advanced just as Boost_LIBRARY_DIR was. Also their _LAST values should
be tracked so changes can be detected reliably. Both of these are
handled by code looking in _Boost_VARS_LIB for a list of relevant
variables. Fix construction of this list that was broken by the above
commit.

The CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH and CMAKE_APPBUNDLE_PATH cache variables are
supposed to be used to generate the extra paths passed to pkg-config,
but instead the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variable is used.
This bug was introduced by the refactor in commit v3.1.0-rc1~747^2~1.
Add an ExternalData_NO_SYMLINKS to enable use of copies instead of
symlinks to populate the real data files behind a DATA{} reference.
This will be useful on UNIX-like systems when the underlying filesystem
does not actually support symbolic links.

Do not force a specific policy version in the module because it prevents
projects from setting newer policies to NEW. In particular, projects
may want to set CMP0056 to NEW to affect any try_compile calls in this
module.
Use of this was added in commit v2.8.2~714 (FortranCInterface: Use CMake
2.8.0 behavior, 2009-11-17) in order to set CMP0007 to NEW. Simply set
this policy explicitly instead.

Universal Binaries, 2009-12-17) and updated in commit v3.1.0-rc1~511^2~1
(Do not change minimum required version in modules, 2014-05-07). The
history does not clearly explain why a specific policy version was
introduced. If specific policies need to be NEW then we can add
explicit settings for them.
