Forward `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` and `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_DEBUG` from the
calling project into the test project. The set of flags may affect the
availability of IPO support. Since this may change the result of the
check for existing projects, add a policy for compatibility.
This was discovered after commit 5fcadc481e (MSVC: Default to -ZI
instead of /Zi for x86 and x64, 2022-05-24) introduced policy CMP0138 to
switch our default for MSVC's debug info flag. The `-ZI` flag is
incompatible with the `-GL` flag used for IPO, so CMP0138 was reverted
pending future work on an alternative solution. Re-use the CMP0138
policy number for this change to CheckIPOSupported instead.
Fixes: #23607
Revert commit 5fcadc481e (MSVC: Default to -ZI instead of /Zi for x86
and x64, 2022-05-24). The `-ZI` flag is incompatible with the `-GL`
flag used for IPO, and so is not an unconditionally better default.
Revert the change pending future design of a first-class setting for
MSVC debug info format that can be automatically reconciled with IPO
settings.
That commit introduced policy CMP0138, but we already have later policy
numbers used too. Leave placeholder text to avoid policy renumbering.
Issue: #23607, #10189
Extend the change from commit e01990999a (Ninja: On Windows, select the
compiler occurring first in PATH, 2020-04-17, v3.18.0-rc1~291^2) to
apply to the MSYS/MinGW Makefiles generators too. Drop the implied
`gcc` and `g++` default compilers. This allows MinGW/Clang environments
to work out of the box.

Add a new property, INTERFACE_HEADER_SETS_TO_VERIFY, which contains
a list of header sets that should be verified by
VERIFY_INTERFACE_HEADER_SETS.

LLVM Flang (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/flang) is an LLVM
Fortran compiler that shares the same name as Flang (also known as Classic
Flang). Classic Flang is in active development and is already identified by
CMake as Flang. As such, LLVM Flang will be identified as `LLVMFlang`.

Add LINK_LIBRARIES test to demonstrate static linking of transitive
dependencies.
Add STATIC_TARGET argument to pkg_check_modules() and pkg_search_module().
Influences the properties of target produced by IMPORTED_TARGET.
When enabled: target's properties will be populated from <XXX>_STATIC_*
variables instead of from <XXX>_* variables.
Update existing tests concerning properties of targets produced via
IMPORTED_TARGET, to test STATIC_TARGET variant too.
Update existing tests concerning <XXX>_* variables to test <XXX>_STATIC_*
variables too.
Breaking changes to pkg_check_modules() and pkg_search_module():
- Variables CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_PREFIXES and CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES can no
longer be used to influence library lookup (i.e. the internal call to
find_library()), because FindPkgConfig now internally relies on these
variables to differentiate between shared and static library lookup.
Prefer CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_PREFIX + CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SUFFIX, or
CMAKE_STATIC_LIBRARY_PREFIX + CMAKE_STATIC_LIBRARY_SUFFIX, depending on
whether you wish to impact static or shared lookup.
- <XXX>_LINK_LIBRARIES will now be populated only with libraries
located via CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_PREFIX + CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SUFFIX match
- <XXX>_STATIC_LIBRARIES now processes -framework options
- <XXX>_STATIC_LDFLAGS_OTHER now processes -framework options
- <XXX>_STATIC_CFLAGS_OTHER now processes -isystem options
- <XXX>_STATIC_INCLUDE_DIRS now processes -isystem options

Add policy CMP0137 to propagate both our builtin variables and those
listed by `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` to `try_compile`
whole-project builds.
