Since commit d4d0dd0f6a (cmLinkLineComputer: Add ComputeLinkLibs
overload with backtraces, 2019-09-13, v3.16.0-rc1~87^2~4), backtraces
have been collected by `ComputeLinkLibs` by looking back through the
link implementation libraries for one matching the text of the link line
item. This is slow in projects with long link lines.
Instead, teach `cmComputeLinkDepends` and `cmComputeLinkInformation` to
carry backtrace information explicitly along with the text of each item.

Replace our hard-coded default of cudart=static with a first-class abstraction to select the runtime library from an enumeration of logical names.
The `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` variable is meant for linkers that
want library file paths to be preceded by a flag. This is used only
for OpenWatcom to add the `library` argument before library file paths.
Refactor the approach to treat `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` as a
command-line string fragment to add just before the library file path.
This has two advantages:
* `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` now works like `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FLAG`.
* `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` can now be an attached flag whose value
is the library file path.
Technically this is a change in behavior, but this setting was created
for internal use and should be rarely used outside of CMake itself.

Suppress some cases in `Source/cmGeneratorExpressionNode.cxx` and
`Source/cmUVHandlePtr.h` where a few older compilers require a
user-defined default constructor (with `{}`).
Run the `clang-format.bash` script to update all our C and C++ code to a
new style defined by `.clang-format`. Use `clang-format` version 6.0.

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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by
full path. However, some projects had problems on platforms where
find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really
wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by
accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link.
We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library
to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by
returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories. This
caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a
full path. We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (...
switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l,
2008-01-31). However, the special case for libraries in implicit link
directories has also proven problematic and confusing.
Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path
even if they are in implicit link directories. Explain in the policy
documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to
this approach.
Casts from std::string -> cmStdString were high on the list of things
taking up time. Avoid such implicit casts across function calls by just
using std::string everywhere.
The comment that the symbol name is too long is no longer relevant since
modern debuggers alias the templates anyways and the size is a
non-issue since the underlying methods are generated since it's
inherited.
This has follow-on effects for other methods and classes. Further
work on making the use of const cmTarget pointers common can be
done, particularly with a view to generate-time methods.
When processing link line entries we check for matches with known naming
patterns for static and shared libraries. Teach this logic to recognize
numerical suffixes after shared library names such as "libfoo.so.1".
The 'head' is the dependent target to be linked with the current target.
It will be used to evaluate generator expressions with proper handling
of mapped configurations and is used as the source target of properties.
This requires that memoization is done with a key of a pair of target
and config, instead of just config, because now the result also depends
on the target. Removing the memoization entirely is not an option
because it slows cmake down considerably.
OpenBSD shared library names end in a ".#.#" version number suffix.
Teach cmComputeLinkInformation to tolerate the extra suffix after
the normal library name suffixes when parsing library names.
Detect the runtime linker's search path and add to the compile time
linker's search path. This is needed because OpenBSD's static linker
does not search for shared library dependencies in the same places as
the runtime linker.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
In cmComputeLinkInformation::Compute we add implicit link information
from languages other than the linker language to the end of the link
line. This factors out that code into separate methods to improve
readability and organization.
