Move custom command creation to cmLocalGenerator and dispatch custom
commands in cmMakefile to generate time. Generators add custom commands
using the new methods provided by cmLocalGenerator.
Issue: #12877
cmGeneratorExpression::Evaluate is a shortcut when only the evaluated string is
needed or an instance of cmCompiledGeneratorExpression cannot be cached.
Fixes: #19686
This patch is generated by a python script that uses regular expressions to
search for string concatenation patterns of the kind
```
std::string str = <ARG0>;
str += <ARG1>;
str += <ARG2>;
...
```
and replaces them with a single `cmStrCat` call
```
std::string str = cmStrCat(<ARG0>, <ARG1>, <ARG2>, ...);
```
If any `<ARGX>` is itself a concatenated string of the kind
```
a + b + c + ...;
```
then `<ARGX>` is split into multiple arguments for the `cmStrCat` call.
If there's a sequence of literals in the `<ARGX>`, then all literals in the
sequence are concatenated and merged into a single literal argument for
the `cmStrCat` call.
Single character strings are converted to single char arguments for
the `cmStrCat` call.
`std::to_string(...)` wrappings are removed from `cmStrCat` arguments,
because it supports numeric types as well as string types.
`arg.substr(x)` arguments to `cmStrCat` are replaced with
`cm::string_view(arg).substr(x)`
This replaces invocations of
- `cmSystemTools::IsInternallyOn` with `cmIsInternallyOn`
- `cmSystemTools::IsNOTFOUND` with `cmIsNOTFOUND`
- `cmSystemTools::IsOn` with `cmIsOn`
- `cmSystemTools::IsOff` with `cmIsOff`
This changes `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` to take a `cm::string_view` as value
argument instead of a `const char *`.
Benefits are:
- `std::string` can be passed to `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` directly without
the `c_str()` plus string length recomputation fallback.
- Lengths of literals passed to `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` can be computed at
compile time.
In various sources uses of `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` are adapted to avoid
`std::string::c_str` calls and the `std::string` is passed directly.
Uses of `cmMakefile::AddDefinition`, where a `nullptr` `const char*` might
be passed to `cmMakefile::AddDefinition` are extended with `nullptr` checks.
Add a `VS_NO_SOLUTION_DEPLOY` target property to explicitly specify for
each target whether to suppress VS solution deployment of the generated
target project.
Fixes: #18953
Make the constructors protected since they should be produced through
factories. Also rename `platform{ => InGenerator}Name` to clarify
the meaning of the argument.
Convert from char* to std::string in flag tables.
Change termination condition from nullptr to empty string in command flag.
Update tables to store empty strings.

Some generators auto-generate targets. For example VS generators create
the ALL_BUILD target. Add the ability to mark targets as generator
provided and return that info through cmake-server codemodel.
Some are user facing.

We now require C++11 support including `override`. Drop use of
the old compatibility macro. Convert references as follows:
git grep -l CM_OVERRIDE -- '*.h' '*.hxx' '*.cxx' |
xargs sed -i 's/CM_OVERRIDE/override/g'
Since commit v3.9.0-rc1~309^2 (include_external_msproject: Honor
MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG>, 2017-04-04) we accidentally honor
`MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG>` while generating the `.sln` file entries
for normal targets. This causes `devenv.com`-driven builds to use the
mapping incorrectly for normal targets. Check that a target really
comes from `include_external_msproject` before considering the map.
Furthermore, when we do use the map, we should only take the first entry
if more than one configuration is specified. Otherwise we end up giving
VS a configuration name with a `;` in it.
Fixes: #17276
Fix our calls to `AddCustomCommandToOutput` for adding cmake re-run
check commands to disable old-style quoting in favor of the full quoting
logic. This is necessary when paths contain special characters like `&`
that old-style quoting logic does not handle.
This also requires us to expand the `$(SolutionPath)` placeholder
explicitly because otherwise its expanded value will no longer be quoted
correctly. As a side effect, this fixes the value in VS 10 and above
where the placeholder may be undefined when driving the build through
MSBuild without the `.sln` file.

Visual Studio's build system does not cleanly handle itself being
re-generated during the build. Teach `cmake --build` to check whether
the build system needs to be re-generated before launching the native
build tool.
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
