Since commit d4d0dd0f6a (cmLinkLineComputer: Add ComputeLinkLibs
overload with backtraces, 2019-09-13, v3.16.0-rc1~87^2~4), backtraces
have been collected by `ComputeLinkLibs` by looking back through the
link implementation libraries for one matching the text of the link line
item. This is slow in projects with long link lines.
Instead, teach `cmComputeLinkDepends` and `cmComputeLinkInformation` to
carry backtrace information explicitly along with the text of each item.
Fixes: #20322
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
Extend the fix from commit 0578239d3a (VS: Tell VS 16.4 not to verify
SYMBOLIC custom command outputs, 2019-09-23, v3.15.4~2^2) to apply to
outputs in CMake-provided targets like `install`. Simply mark these
outputs as `SYMBOLIC` too since they are not actually generated.
Fixes: #19737
The unity build sources need to be added for all generators. Create
them during `cmGlobalGenerator::Compute` to avoid duplicating the calls
in every generator. We already handle Qt autogen there too.

It works as expected in Visual Studio.
Visual Studio 2017 will (partially) benefit from the build in
support for unity builds. The custom unity sources are used, because
the build in support doesn't allow batching of certain number of
files. It can do only batching by directory.
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)`
The `AssemblerListingLocation` setting in VS project files is meant for
intermediate files created during the build much like object files.
When the VS 7 generator was first under development, commit 49aebe6c99
(new arch, 2002-09-04) placed both object files and the ASM list
location in the same directory. Later commit f9aef0e422 (Generator now
creates a separate intermediate files directory for each target,
2005-07-27) moved the object files to a per-target directory but the
ASM list location was not moved with them. Move it now.
Fixes: #19480
Rather than taking a number of out parameters for the various names,
create a structure that is reused for both `GetLibraryNames` and
`GetExecutableNames`. Replace uses according to the new interface.
