Brad King bd581a3733 try_compile: Honor CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> changes (#16054)
In the `try_compile` source file signature we propagate the caller's
value of `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` into the test project.  Extend this to
propagate `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` too instead of always using the
default value in the test project.  This will be useful, for example, to
allow the MSVC runtime library to be changed (e.g. `-MDd` => `-MTd`).

try_compile-config-flags
------------------------
* The :command:`try_compile` command source file signature now honors
configuration-specific flags (e.g. :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_DEBUG`)
in the generated test project. Previously only the default such flags
for the current toolchain were used.
