Brad King 01d7860fdb Ninja,Makefile: Restore Fortran module scanning in static library cycle
Since

* commit eed295fd8a (cmGlobalNinjaGenerator: require that dependency info
                     files work, 2023-02-01, v3.26.0-rc1~1^2~1), and
* commit 13810dee17 (cmDependsFortran: require that dependency info files
                     work, 2023-02-01, v3.26.0-rc1~1^2),

the Ninja and Makefile generators' module dependency scanning requires
that scanning results from from linked targets is available before
scanning the current target.  In the case of a static library cycle,
we cannot expect this information from other static libraries in the
cycle.  Previously we supported cyclic cases at the cost of silently
ignoring missing information.

We already compute a global order of targets that respects all
`add_dependencies`, but may break `target_link_libraries` dependencies
that occur in a static library cycle.  Use this order to filter the
linked targets so we only expect scanning results to be available from
those targets that build before the current target.

This approach is sufficient to support module dependency scanning in
static library cycles as long as module dependencies do not cross
between two libraries in the same cycle.

CMake Tests Directory
*********************

This directory contains the CMake test suite.
See also the `CMake Source Code Guide`_.

.. _`CMake Source Code Guide`: ../Help/dev/source.rst

Many tests exist as immediate subdirectories, but some tests
are organized as follows.

* ``CMakeLib/``:
  Source code, used for tests, that links to the ``CMakeLib`` library
  defined over in ``Source/``.

* ``CMakeOnly/``:
  Deprecated.  Tests that run CMake to generate a project but not build it.
  Superseded by ``Tests/RunCMake/``.

* ``Find*/``:
  Tests for specific find modules that can only be run on machines with
  the corresponding packages installed.  They are enabled in
  ``CMakeLists.txt`` by undocumented options used on CI builds.

* ``Module/``:
  Tests for specific CMake modules.

* ``RunCMake/``:
  Tests that run CMake and/or other tools while precisely checking
  their return code and stdout/stderr content.  Useful for testing
  error cases and diagnostic output.
