Stephen Kelly 370bf55415 Add the ALIAS target concept for libraries and executables.
* The ALIAS name must match a validity regex.
* Executables and libraries may be aliased.
* An ALIAS acts immutable. It can not be used as the lhs
  of target_link_libraries or other commands.
* An ALIAS can be used with add_custom_command, add_custom_target,
  and add_test in the same way regular targets can.
* The target of an ALIAS can be retrieved with the ALIASED_TARGET
  target property.
* An ALIAS does not appear in the generated buildsystem. It
  is kept separate from cmMakefile::Targets for that reason.
* A target may have multiple aliases.
* An ALIAS target may not itself have an alias.
* An IMPORTED target may not have an alias.
* An ALIAS may not be exported or imported.

Stephen Kelly 9cf3547e1c Add the INTERFACE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES target property.
Unlike other target properties, this does not have a corresponding
non-INTERFACE variant.

This allows propagation of system attribute on include directories
from link dependents.

Stephen Kelly d7dd01083a Add target property debugging for COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
Use constructs similar to those for COMPILE_OPTIONS. This is a little
different because there is a command to remove_definitions(), so
we can't populate the equivalent target property until generate-time
in cmGlobalGenerator.

Brad King 18e1bfbb3c cmake: On configure error suggest looking at CMake*.log files
When CMake reports failure to configure a project, especially when the
toolchain does not initialize properly, the true reason may be clear
from reading the CMakeFiles/CMake(Output|Error).log files.  Advise users
to look at these files if they exist when configuration fails.

Add RunCMake.Configure test to check that the log files are mentioned
when configuration fails.

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.

Stephen Kelly a223a3b65f Automoc: Don't create automoc targets if Qt is not used (#13999)
Commit 79568f95 (automoc: Add source file to target early to set the
linker language, 2013-02-20) changed automoc initialization to a two
step process. In the first step, the generated source file was added
to the target, which allows the link language to be determined.

However, this bypassed the check for the availability of Qt itself.
At build-time the automoc file could not be generated because the moc
tool was not available to create it.

The solution is to only add the automoc file to the target if Qt is
found.

Stephen Kelly 79568f95ab automoc: Add source file to target early to set the linker language
Previously, GetIncludeDirectories was called before calling
target->AddSourceFile(mocCppSource). Since commit a1c4905f (Use the
link information as a source of compile definitions and
includes., 2013-02-12), the include directories are determined by
the link information.

Valid link information requires that the linker language can be
determined, which depends on the source files languages and the
dependent targets languages. In the case of the no_link_languages
target in the unit test, there are no dependencies and the additional
source file no_link_languages_automoc.cpp is added to the target
at generate-time. That file can be used to determine the linker
language, but it must be added to the target before calling
GetIncludeDirectories.

Add a RunCMake.GeneratorToolset test to cover basic "-T" option cases.
Verify that CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET is empty without -T, that -T is
rejected when the generator doesn't support it, and that two -T options
are always rejected.

Stephen Kelly 9ce1b9ef29 Add CMAKE_BUILD_INTERFACE_INCLUDES build-variable.
This makes

add the equivalent of

 set_property(TARGET tgt APPEND PROPERTY
   INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
   $<BUILD_INTERFACE:${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR};${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}>
 )

to every target.

If the headers are in CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR, and the generated headers
are in CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR, this is a convenient way to build a target
bar, which depends on foo, just by using target_link_libraries() and adding
the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES to the INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES of the target
being linked. There will be more-convenient porcelain API to consume the
property in the future.

Brad King 5ff75873a9 Initialize IMPORTED GLOBAL targets on reconfigure (#13702)
Since commit ca39c5cd (Optionally allow IMPORTED targets to be globally
visible, 2012-01-25) cmGlobalGenerator has a second member that tracks
targets with global scope.  We must initialize the new 'ImportedTargets'
member wherever the old 'TotalTargets' member is initialized.  Without
this initialization the ImportedTargets member is left with dangling
pointers during a same-process re-configuration.

Stephen Kelly 95d590ddba GenEx: Create cmGeneratorTargets for imported targets.
We're going to need to link to them, and all the linking API is moving
to cmGeneratorTarget.

Skip imported targets when iterating over cmGeneratorTargets in places
where we only want targets we build.  The GetGeneratorTargets result now
includes IMPORTED targets where it didn't before.  The GetTargets
result, which was what used to be called in these methods does not
include IMPORTED targets.  This doesn't relate to any known bugs, but in
some future uses of GetGeneratorTargets it will be important, so
starting the convention and being deliberate now is a good idea.

Brad King 7195aca54f Make platform information files specific to the CMake version
At the top of a build tree we configure inside the CMakeFiles directory
files such as "CMakeSystem.cmake" and "CMake<lang>Compiler.cmake" to
save information detected about the system and compilers in use.  The
method of detection and the exact results store varies across CMake
versions as things improve.  This leads to problems when loading files
configured by a different version of CMake.  Previously we ignored such
existing files only if the major.minor part of the CMake version
component changed, and depended on the CMakeCache.txt to tell us the
last version of CMake that wrote the files.  This led to problems if the
user deletes the CMakeCache.txt or we add required information to the
files in a patch-level release of CMake (still a "feature point" release
by modern CMake versioning convention).

Ensure that we always have version-consistent platform information files
by storing them in a subdirectory named with the CMake version.  Every
version of CMake will do its own system and compiler identification
checks even when a build tree has already been configured by another
version of CMake.  Stored results will not clobber those from other
versions of CMake which may be run again on the same tree in the future.
Loaded results will match what the system and language modules expect.

Rename the undocumented variable CMAKE_PLATFORM_ROOT_BIN to
CMAKE_PLATFORM_INFO_DIR to clarify its purpose.  The new variable points
at the version-specific directory while the old variable did not.

Stephen Kelly bd34963002 Refactor generation of shared library flags
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS has flags on various platforms for a
variety of purposes that are correlated with shared libraries but not
exclusive to them.  Refactor generation of these flags to use new
purpose-specific platform variables

  CMAKE_<lang>_COMPILE_OPTIONS_DLL
  CMAKE_<lang>_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIC
  CMAKE_<lang>_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIE

Activate the DLL flags specifically for shared libraries.  Add a new
POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE target property to activate PIC/PIE flags, and
default to true for shared libraries to preserve default behavior.
Initialize the new property from CMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE to
allow easy global configuration in projects.

Although the default behavior is unchanged by this refactoring, the new
approach ignores CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS completely.  We must
leave it set in case projects reference the value.  Furthermore, if a
project modifies CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS it expects the new
value to be used.  Add policy CMP0018 to handle compatibility with
projects that modify this platform variable.

Add a PositionIndependentCode test on platforms where we can get
meaningful results.
