Optionally exclude implicit link directories via environment

A misconfigured compiler may pass extraneous implicit link directories
to its linker.  If they are in `CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES`,
CMake may generate extra `-L` flags on mixed-language link lines that
break linking.  Add an environment variable that users can set to work
around such misconfiguration of their compilers.

CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES_EXCLUDE
----------------------------------------------
.. versionadded:: 3.27
.. include:: ENV_VAR.txt
A :ref:`semicolon-separated list <CMake Language Lists>` of directories
to exclude from the :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES`
variable when it is automatically detected from the ``<LANG>`` compiler.
This may be used to work around misconfigured compiler drivers that pass
extraneous implicit link directories to their linker.

Compilers typically pass directories containing language runtime
libraries and default library search paths when they invoke a linker.
These paths are implicit linker search directories for the compiler's
language. For each language enabled by the :command:`project` or
language.
For each language enabled by the :command:`project` or
:command:`enable_language` command, CMake automatically detects these
directories and reports the results in this variable.
The :envvar:`CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES_EXCLUDE` environment
variable may be set to exclude specific directories from the automatically
detected results.
When linking to a static library, CMake adds the implicit link directories
from this variable for each language used in the static library (except
