Classify .manifest sources separately, add dependencies on them, and
pass them to the MS manifest tool to merge with linker-generated
manifest files.

The MSVC linker may update a binary without touching the associated
import library.
Making the import library a BYPRODUCT prevents the linker from
unnecessarily rerunning when the import library does not get regenerated
as previously expected.
Create target property WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS to automatically
generate a module definition file from MS-compatible .obj files and give
it to the linker in order to export all symbols from the .dll part of a
SHARED library.
Our <LANG>_COMPILER and <LANG>_<TARGET_TYPE>_LINKER rule generation has
access to a specific cmTarget so the results may depend on it. Instead
generate separate rules for each target using an encoded target name.
In particular, this makes CTEST_USE_LAUNCHERS report proper target
information.
Since commit v2.8.11~213^2 (Ninja: Avoid LNK1170 linker error, 2013-02-01)
we generate linker response files with "$in_newline" to support a large
number of object files with the MS link.exe tool. However, the GNU linker
on Windows does not understand the newline endings that Ninja puts in the
response files. Switch back to "$in" for that case.
When choosing whether to use a response file, consider several possible
command line length limits for the current operating system, and choose
the smallest.
07fc7b75 Tests: Test using objects from a language enabled in a subdirectory (#15325)
fdbfcfdf Ninja: Generate rules only for languages compiled in a target (#15325)
Refactoring in commit v3.1.0-rc1~688^2~2 (cmTarget: Compute languages
from object libraries on demand, 2014-03-18) taught cmTarget::GetLanguages
to (correctly) include the languages of object library sources. Previously
this was done only in cmTarget::ComputeLinkImplementationLanguages to
choose the linker language.
The Ninja generator writes out generic build rules for each language
compiled within a target using the rule variables defined in the
directory of the target. This only needs to be done for languages
actually compiled within the current target. Switch from using the
cmTarget::GetLanguages method to get the list of languages over to
using cmTarget::GetSourceFiles directly so we do not get the languages
in object libraries.
Strictly speaking this should make no difference because it is not safe
to use objects from a language not enabled in the directory containing
a target or else the link information for the language may not be
considered. However, in cases when no link information happens to be
needed for a language it was possible in CMake 3.0 and below to enable
a language only in a subdirectory providing an object library, and then
use the objects from a containing directory. The above change teaches
the Ninja generator to continue working in this case.
A common idiom in CMake-based build systems is to have custom commands
that generate files not listed explicitly as outputs so that these
files do not have to be newer than the inputs. The file modification
times of such "byproducts" are updated only when their content changes.
Then other build rules can depend on the byproducts explicitly so that
their dependents rebuild when the content of the original byproducts
really does change.
This "undeclared byproduct" approach is necessary for Makefile, VS, and
Xcode build tools because if a byproduct were listed as an output of a
rule then the rule would always rerun when the input is newer than the
byproduct but the byproduct may never be updated.
Ninja solves this problem by offering a 'restat' feature to check
whether an output was really modified after running a rule and tracking
the fact that it is up to date separately from its timestamp. However,
Ninja also stats all dependencies up front and will only restat files
that are listed as outputs of rules with the 'restat' option enabled.
Therefore an undeclared byproduct that does not exist at the start of
the build will be considered missing and the build will fail even if
other dependencies would cause the byproduct to be available before its
dependents build.
CMake works around this limitation by adding 'phony' build rules for
custom command dependencies in the build tree that do not have any
explicit specification of what produces them. This is not optimal
because it prevents Ninja from reporting an error when an input to a
rule really is missing. A better approach is to allow projects to
explicitly specify the byproducts of their custom commands so that no
phony rules are needed for them. In order to work with the non-Ninja
generators, the byproducts must be known separately from the outputs.
Add a new "BYPRODUCTS" option to the add_custom_command and
add_custom_target commands to specify byproducts explicitly. Teach the
Ninja generator to specify byproducts as outputs of the custom commands.
In the case of POST_BUILD, PRE_LINK, and PRE_BUILD events on targets
that link, the byproducts must be specified as outputs of the link rule
that runs the commands. Activate 'restat' for such rules so that Ninja
knows it needs to check the byproducts, but not for link rules that have
no byproducts.
Use an explicit "$TARGET_FILE" variable instead of "$out" so that
we can have multiple output files while still only referencing the
main one in command lines.
A library or executable target that consists only of a reference to an
object library may have no sources to compile or custom commands to run.
The command in the target is the link (or archive) command. Add missing
order-only dependencies to link commands so that target ordering
dependencies are satisfied for it without depending on an intermediate
compilation rule.
Extend the ObjectLibrary test to cover this case.

Use the same common-config API in cmQtAutoGenerators. While
it accepts config-specific files, it doesn't have to support
multiple configurations yet.
Loop over the configs in cmTargetTraceDependencies
and cmGlobalGenerator::WriteSummary and consume all source
files.
Loop over the configs in cmComputeTargetDepends and compute the
object library dependencies for each config.
Until now the cmCustomCommandGenerator was used only to compute the
command lines of a custom command. Generalize it to get the comment,
working directory, dependencies, and outputs of custom commands. Update
use in all generators to support this.
