Create a single place to store target data to prevent duplication.
This moves `targetType` and `targetLabels` out of the snippet files
and into a target map in the `cmakeContent` file referenced by each
snippet.

Revert infrastructure from commit 8bcf9c7a3e (Add support of "LINKER:"
prefix for artifact creation flags, 2024-10-12, v4.0.0-rc1~522^2~1).
It is not needed to populate legacy placeholders with empty strings.
Previously we used separate placeholders for builtin linker flags:
* CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_FLAGS for EXECUTABLEs
* CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_CREATE_<LANG>_FLAGS for SHARED libraries
* CMAKE_SHARED_MODULE_CREATE_<LANG>_FLAGS for MODULE libraries
These correspond to variables set by our compiler information modules.
Teach the generators to look up these variables and add them to the
existing `<LINK_FLAGS>` placeholder instead. Substitute the empty
string for the old placeholders.

With IntelLLVM on Windows, we link using the compiler driver.
With MSVC on Windows, we invoke the linker directly. If we
use both in a single build tree, for separate languages,
the value of `CMAKE_LINK_DEF_FILE_FLAG` conflicts. Add a
per-language `CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_DEF_FILE_FLAG` variable to
avoid the conflict. Preserve the language-agnostic variable
for compatibility with projects that reference it.

Run the `clang-format.bash` script to update all our C and C++ code to a
new style defined by `.clang-format`, now with "east const" enforcement.
Use `clang-format` version 18.

Issue: #26123
The following variables now support the LINKER: prefix:
* CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_CREATE_<LANG>_FLAGS
* CMAKE_SHARED_MODULE_CREATE_<LANG>_FLAGS
* CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_FLAGS
Offer the capability, through variable `CMAKE_LINKER_TYPE`, as well as
the target property `LINKER_TYPE` to specify which linker must be used.
The implementation of this capability is specified by variables specific
to the language and linker type: `CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_<TYPE>`.
Some definitions are provided as part of `CMake`.
For example, to select the `LLVM` linker rather than the standard one,
the type `LLD` should be specified through the variable `CMAKE_LINKER_TYPE`.
And, on `Apple`, `Linux` and some environments on `Windows`, the variable
`CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_LLD` has value `-fuse-ld=lld`. And for `Windows`
environments based on `MSVC`, where the linker is used directly, the tool
`lld-link.exe` will be used rather than `link.exe`.

Response files contained double-quote for any response file, but response files for wlink must contains single-quote. This is fix for libraries list response file. Problem for object file list was fixed by MR
!8115
Replace WATCOMQUOTE output format by UseWatcomQuote attribute to properly handle single quote
This attribute is used globaly only for Watcom linker to handle single-quote separator instead of double-quote
it doesn't mean different output format only change of quoting separator
It is now applied to any output form SHELL/RESPONSE/NINJAMULTI if Watcom linker is used otherwise double-quote is used
Currently, this feature is only supported on ELF platforms. So, the property
LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE will be ignored for other plateforms.
Moreover, flags and commands are now controled by CMake variables.

Most calls to `MaybeConvertToRelativePath` use one of our common work
directories (e.g. top of the build tree) as the local path. Add helpers
for each of the common cases to simplify and clarify call sites.
For NVCC the compiler takes care of device linking when passed the "-dlink"
flag.
Clang doesn't support such magic and requires the buildsystem to do the work
that NVCC does behind the scenes.
The implementation is based on Bazel's device linking documentation:
7cabcdf073/third_party/nccl/build_defs.bzl.tpl (L259)Closes: #20726
properties LINK_OPTIONS and INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS are propagated
to the device link step.
To control which options are selected for normal link and device link steps,
the $<DEVICE_LINK> and $<HOST_LINK> generator expressions can be used.
Fixes: #18265
Since commit 0f150b69d3 (AIX: Explicitly compute shared object exports
for both XL and GNU, 2019-07-11, v3.16.0-rc1~418^2~2) we always export
all symbols from shared libraries by default. Add a new target property
called `AIX_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS` that can be explicitly set to OFF to
suppress this behavior and export no symbols by default.
Fixes: #20290
