Stephen Kelly b80557c7bd file(GENERATE): Evaluate early to allow generating source files
The evaluation files must be known before cmTargetTraceDependencies
attempts to find them, but we must actually generate the files after
cmTargetTraceDependencies, as that can add to target SOURCES.  The
limitation is that the generated output name must not depend on the
SOURCES of a target if the generated file is used by that target.

Mark the output files as GENERATED so that trace dependencies does
not expect them to already exist in the filesystem.

Move the invokation of ForceLinkerLanguage in the Generate logic
to after the generated file names are known.  ForceLinkerLanguage
tries to determine the sources of a target (in order to determine
an already-known language) and otherwise fails to get information
about the generated file.

Test that the output of file(GENERATE) can be used as a target source
file and that accessing the target SOURCES in the name of the output
file is an error.  Accessing the TARGET_OBJECTS would be a similar
error if it was legal to use that generator expression in this
context.  That is not currently possible and is a different error
condition, so test the current error output as a reminder to change
the expected output if that becomes possible in the future.  Test
that generated rule files resulting from cmTargetTraceDependencies
appear in the SOURCES generated in the output file.

Brad King 3526478cc0 Tests: Activate tests accidentally excluded from Xcode
The generator name is "Xcode", not "XCode".  Fix this typo.  Explicitly
exclude the SubDirSpaces test on Xcode because it does not work.  Also
tell the RunCMake.File_Generate test when Xcode is not multi-config so
it can exlcude the OutputConflict case.

Brad King 8707814e78 Tests: Refactor RunCMake.File_Generate to drop RunCMake_TEST_FILE
Drop use of RunCMake_TEST_FILE and pass the test file in through a
definition in RunCMake_TEST_OPTIONS.

Stephen Kelly 42e1cd137c file(GENERATE): Only write the file if content is different.
No policy is used to control this behavior for now.

Brad King d05a9bd1e6 Cygwin: Avoid legacy warnings in RunCMake.* tests
Set the minimum required version of CMake high enough to avoid the
warning for CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32.  The warning appears on stderr
and breaks the expected output matching.

Stephen Kelly b983a58bdf file: Add GENERATE command to produce files at generate time
The idea is to write to a temp file which contains generator
expressions, and at generate time, evaluate the generator expressions,
and write the result to a file.

Because executables on Windows are limited in the length of command line
it is possible to use, it is common to write command line arguments to a
file instead and specify the file as a source of arguments.

This new FILE(GENERATE) subcommand allows the use of generator
expressions to create such files so that they can be used with
add_custom_command for example.
