The `LINK_ONLY` generator expression is used to represent private
dependencies of static libraries in their `INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`
property value. Fix evaluation of generator expressions during export
to support the `LINK_ONLY` genex. Extend the RunCMake.AndroidMK test
with a case for this.
When exporting `INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`, we must evaluate generator
expressions first, before expanding the `;` list, in case they contain
or generate semicolons.
Ninja runs just one command line for every build statement, so the Ninja
generator needs to `&&`-chain multiple commands together into one long
string. For long custom command sequences this can exceed the maximum
command-line length for the operating system. In such cases, write the
commands out to a script instead, and then run the script from Ninja's
one command line.

Fixes: #15612
Check if the content of the AUTOMOC/UIC/RCC info file
will change before overwriting it. This avoids unnecessary
AUTORCC rebuilds when AUTORCC unrelated CMake settings change.
For multi configuration generators AUTOMOC generates the
moc files that are included in `mocs_compilation.cpp`
in `AUTOGEN_BUILD_DIR/include_$<CONFIG>/`. By doing so each
configuration reads different moc files when compiling
`mocs_compilation.cpp`. Since we do not (need to) rewrite
`mocs_compilation.cpp` on a configuration change anymore,
the files also does not need to be recompiled anymore.
Not having to rewrite and recompile `mocs_compilation.cpp`
on a configuration change anymore was the main objective of
this patch.
In a similar fashion AUTORCC generates a `qrc_BASE_CMAKE.cpp`
file below `AUTOGEN_BUILD_DIR/include_$<CONFIG>/` and
`qrc_BASE.cpp` becomes a mere wrapper that includes this
actuall rcc output file (when using multi configuration
generators).
The template files `Modules/AutoRccInfo.cmake.in` and
`Modules/AutogenInfo.cmake.in` were removed in favor
of writing the info `.cmake` files manually.
Closes#17230
In commit v3.4.0-rc1~480^2~3 (cmCustomCommandGenerator: Port to
cmOutputConverter, 2015-06-04), cmCustomCommandGenerator's access to the
local generator was removed so it needed to construct its own
cmOutputConverter instance. Access to the local generator was then
restored by commit v3.4.0-rc1~285^2~21 (cmCustomCommandGenerator:
Require cmLocalGenerator in API, 2015-07-25), so now we can use its
cmOutputConverter base class methods directly.
Remove the `PRE_LINK` and `POST_BUILD` variables. They are not
referenced by `WriteDeviceLinkRule`.
Remove the `byproducts` local variable from `WriteDeviceLinkStatement`
and all the code populating it. We never used the result.
