Stephen Kelly 5412deded1 cmTarget: Transitively evaluate compiler features.
Extend the interface of the target_compile_features command with
PUBLIC and INTERFACE keywords. Populate the INTERFACE_COMPILER_FEATURES
target property if they are set. Consume the INTERFACE_COMPILER_FEATURES
target property from linked dependent targets to determine the final
required compiler features and the compile flag, if needed.

Use the same pattern of origin-debugging which is used for other
build properties.

INTERFACE_COMPILE_FEATURES
--------------------------
List of public compile requirements for a library.
Targets may populate this property to publish the compiler features
required to compile against the headers for the target. Consuming
targets can add entries to their own :prop_tgt:`COMPILE_FEATURES`
property such as ``$<TARGET_PROPERTY:foo,INTERFACE_COMPILE_FEATURES>``
to require the features specified in the interface of ``foo``.
Contents of ``INTERFACE_COMPILE_FEATURES`` may use "generator expressions"
with the syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)`
manual for available expressions.
