The previous wording contradicted itself regarding whether
Visual Studio generators were supported, and about when
generator expressions could be used. Restructure the paragraphs
and max it clearer what support was added in which CMake
versions.
For an AUTOMOC'ed target foo, when depfiles are used, there are the
following dependencies:
foo_autogen -> foo_autogen/timestamp
foo_autogen/mocs_compilation.cpp -> foo_autogen/timestamp
The first is used to trigger AUTOGEN.
The second erroneously triggers a recompilation of
mocs_compilation.cpp when any source file of target foo is touched.
Remove the latter dependency and replace it with an order-only
dependency from foo_autogen/mocs_compilation.cpp to
foo_autogen_timestamp_deps.
That is achieved by making mocs_compilation.cpp or its
per-configuration variants byproduct(s) of the timestamp file.

We could not rely on .ui files when generating the ninja rules
for the generated UI header files. .ui files might be added to the
target sources but never processed by AUTOUIC afterward, since UI
header files are never included in a source code. Instead of adding
dependency rules based on the .ui files, this approach scans
non-generated source files for includes of the UI header files,
as AUTOUIC does. This gives the consistent set of UI header files
at configure time, that could be used to generate byproducts rules
for the AUTOUIC. Also, the path to the generated UI header file depends
not on the .ui file location but on the include line is used in source
files.

The search logic for the IAR linker, librarian and related tools is
moved from `Modules/Compiler/IAR-FindBinUtils.cmake` to
`Modules/CMakeFindBinUtils.cmake` by introducing an new elseif block
for the IAR toolchain.
The search logic was refactored to omit repeating itself.

Depending on the CUDA installation the nvvm/libdevice folder can
be in different locations. Since `nvcc` outputs the expected location use that when possible.
Since commit 2ae72ef74b (Xcode: Enable multi-arch TARGET_OBJECTS genex
in [INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES, 2021-05-26, v3.21.0-rc1~126^2) the
TARGET_OBJECTS genex, when referenced for linking, is now evaluated with
EvaluateForBuildsystem enabled. This causes the object file paths to be
computed with a buildsystem-specific placeholder for the configuration.
This is normally fine because the placeholder will be evaluated by the
native buildsystem tool using the proper configuration. However, the
Ninja Multi-Config generator's `${CONFIGURATION}` placeholder may not
have the correct value for cross-config object files. Switch back to
using the per-config location of each object file for this generator.

Extend the `SwiftOnly` test to cover the fix in commit 3ddd7f3576
(enable_language: Fix test for working compiler with CMP0126 NEW
behavior, 2021-07-15), as that commit did for the `CSharpOnly` test.
