Brad King f3d4254b3d Check*: Tolerate variables set with names of languages
Fix the language checks added by commit 90dead024c (CheckCompilerFlag:
unified way to check compiler flags per language, 2020-09-25,
v3.19.0-rc1~88^2), commit 10ae907de0 (CheckSoureCompiles: Add a unified
way to check if a source compiles, 2020-09-14, v3.19.0-rc1~118^2~1), and
commit 357e2ef429 (CheckSoureRuns: Add a unified way to check if a
source runs, 2020-09-14, v3.19.0-rc1~118^2) to work when variables of
the language names are set.

Fixes: #21500

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  Superseded by ``Tests/RunCMake/``.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.
