Jochem van Boxtel c598a4609c cmFileSet: Fix poor performance of large file sets with export() on Windows ...

Exporting targets having large FILE_SETs with install(EXPORT) or export(EXPORT)
currently performs poorly on Windows compared to Unix-like systems,
because cmFileSet::EvaluateDirectoryEntries calls SystemTools::SameFile on every
pair of parent directories in the file set. SystemTools::SameFile opens and closes
two read-only filesystem handles. This causes a significant performance drop
on Windows for FILE_SETs with even a couple of dozens of files.

Use the recently added SystemTools::GetFileId function in kwsys
(https://gitlab.kitware.com/utils/kwsys/-/merge_requests/298) instead of SameFile
to cache the identity of a directory in cmFileSet::EvaluateDirectoryEntries.
This means only one filesystem handle is needed per distinct directory path,
instead of two per (even if they're equal) directory pair.
