These new capabilities enable to manage link directories
Two new properties:
* target properties: LINK_DIRECTORIES and INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES
One new command
* target_link_directories(): to populate target properties

The allows `-E create_symlink` to work on Windows. It utilizes
`uv_fs_symlink`. I am still unsure exactly which Windows platforms will
work without requiring Administrator privileges or needing a user/group
with the "Create Symbolic Links" User Rights. It does work with my
Windows 10 Pro with Developer Mode turned on. In the test suite check
that the symlink either worked or failed with a permissions error.
Use recent changes in cmSystemTools::FileExists to check that a symlink
is broken.

The OLD behaviors of all policies are deprecated, but only by
documentation. Add an explicit deprecation diagnostic for some policies
to encourage projects to port away from setting policies to OLD.
Add IPO support for Visual Studio (which is referred to by VS as
"Link Time Code Generation" and "Whole Program Optimization"), for
VS version >= 10. This allows CMake/VS users to enable IPO by setting
property `INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION`.

Previously the command did not allow naming targets on the LHS that
were not created in the calling directory. Lift this restriction to
enable more flexible use by projects.
Targets named on the RHS will need to be looked up during generation in
the scope of the call site rather than the scope of the LHS target.
Introduce an internal syntax in `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties
to specify target names that need to be looked up in a directory other
than that containing the target on which the property is set. Add
minimal documentation of the syntax to help users that encounter it.
Unfortunately CMake previously did allow such calls in the case that
only `INTERFACE` libraries are specified, but those libraries would be
looked up in the target's directory rather than the caller's. Add
policy `CMP0079` to enable the new behavior with new lookup scope in a
compatible way.

Add `XCODE_SCHEME_*` target properties and associated variables
`CMAKE_XCODE_SCHEME_*` to initialize them on target creation.
Map each target property value to an associated Xcode scheme entry.

Add documentation for both the CMake variable and environment variable
of this name pattern. Update references to these names to link to their
documents. Clarify the pattern used to construct their names.

Revert commit v3.12.0-rc1~82^2 (target_link_libraries: Allow use with
targets in other directories, 2018-05-11). The RHS target scoping and
visibility rules are not clear and will need further investigation
before the feature can be added.
