Brad King d256ba078a try_compile: Optionally forward custom platform variables to test project
Add a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable to specify a list
of custom variables to be forwarded to a `try_compile` test project.
This will be useful for platform information modules or toolchain files
to forward some platform-specific set of variables from the host project
(perhaps set in its cache) to the test project so that it can build the
same way.

CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES
------------------------------------
List of variables that the :command:`try_compile` command source file signature
must propagate into the test project in order to target the same platform as
the host project.
This variable should not be set by project code. It is meant to be set by
CMake's platform information modules for the current toolchain, or by a
toolchain file when used with :variable:`CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE`.
