They can't be used when evaluating link libraries, but they can be
used for include directories and compile definitions. Later they can
be used for compile options.
Since commit c519bb2b (XCode: Also qoute [] as needed to set
build-configurations, 2011-04-05) we escape "[]" conditions for
XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_ settings. However, we need to handle the "variant"
condition with a special case to map it only into the settings for the
matching configuration.
a7ba452 Add the JOIN generator expression.

Checking if a byte is 0 before checking it for something else doesn't do
anything useful. Also one can be sure that it can't be anything wanted
if the value was set to 0 immediately before.
Refactor lookup of CMAKE_(EXE|MODULE|SHARED)_LINKER_FLAGS(|_<CONFIG>)
variables to ensure all combinations are handled. Use the helper method
AddConfigVariableFlags to simplify the implementation.

The compiler is (partly) right here: sizeof() returns a size_t, which often is
bigger as as int as it is unsigned long or something similar. Add an explicit
cast to get rid of that warning here, the buffer has a size of 4KiB, so the
value will fit into an int on all sane platforms.
When processing link line entries we check for matches with known naming
patterns for static and shared libraries. Teach this logic to recognize
numerical suffixes after shared library names such as "libfoo.so.1".
Generate the default AssemblerListingLocation through the flag map so
that it can be overridden by a user /Fa flag. Also teach the VS 7-9
generators to map /Fa to AssemblerListingLocation.
While at it, fix the AssemblerListingLocation default value to have a
trailing slash after the configuration name. This ensures it will be
treated as a directory and not a file name.
This allows for example, the buildsystem to use names like 'boost_any'
instead of the overly generic 'any', and still be able to generate
IMPORTED targets called 'boost::any'.
