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.

567fabe88e IPO: INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION (LTCG) for Visual Studio
Acked-by: Kitware Robot <kwrobot@kitware.com>
Merge-request: !2363
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`.

Document the previously internal option of '-B' and provide a
matching source directory option with '-S'. Both '-B', and '-S'
can be used independently of each other.

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.

The memory size query implementations report in units of one mebibyte
(2^20). Clarify the unit in the documentation because "megabyte" might
also be interpreted as 10^6.
This change returns information for INTERFACE_SOURCES. We add
a flag to the filegroup to indicate if the target represents
interface sources.
Protocol version is updated to 1.3 since this is a change to what was
released in cmake version 3.12.
NDK r18 drops GCC toolchains and some STL types. We need to choose a
clang toolchain by default when no gcc toolchains are available. Switch
the STL type default to `c++_static` when the old `gnustl_static`
default is not available.
Update the test suite to not run tests for STL types that do not exist.
Also do not expect the gcc toolchain `cpp` tool to be available because
r18 does not provide it. Also teach it to tolerate `gcc -dumpmachine`
output like `arm--linux-android` that differs from the toolchain prefix.
Fixes: #18301
Many existing tutorials suggest `include_directories` but that does
not handle propagation to dependencies and such. Add a link to its
documentation suggesting `target_include_directories` instead.
CPACK_EXT_ENABLE_STAGING enables optional staging
and CPACK_EXT_PACKAGE_SCRIPT allows to specify an optional
script file that can package staged files via an
external packaging tool.
