Some generators auto-generate targets. For example VS generators create
the ALL_BUILD target. Add the ability to mark targets as generator
provided and return that info through cmake-server codemodel.
This reintroduces the change from commit v3.10.0-rc1~69^2 (Performance:
Improve efficiency of source file lookup in cmMakefile, 2017-08-17) with
some corrections. The original was rolled back by commit
v3.10.0-rc1~52^2~1 (Revert "Performance: ...", 2017-09-25) due to
incompatibilities found. The rollback was followed-up by addition of a
test for the offending case, and this revision passes the test.
Some are user facing.

The new PackageRoot search path group allows the PackageName_ROOT cmake
and environment variables to be used as search prefixes for all find_*
commands called from within a find module
Detect x32-abi through CMakeCompilerABI infrastruture and use this
information at runtime to determine the correct library paths with
`FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIBX32_PATHS`.
Fixes: #15994
Port dependents to the new locations as needed.
Leave behind a cmState.h include in cmListFileCache to reduce noise. It
is removed in a following commit.

cmMakefile should not have logic particular to individual cmake
commands. The link_libraries() command is generally obsolete in favor
of target_link_libraries(). An alternative language for CMake probably
would not offer the former. The quirks and historical behaviors of the
current language should be separate from the core classes of CMake to
allow replacing the language.
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
Provide a way for custom commands to inform the ninja build tool about
their implicit dependencies. For now simply make use of the option an
error on other generators.
Closes: #15479
