Since commit b8626261e9 (Precompile headers: Add methods to generate PCH
sources, 2019-07-13, v3.16.0-rc1~182^2~4) we look up source files for a
target using an upper-case configuration even though an original-case
name is sufficient. Since commit 36ded610af (PCH: Generate sources
during Compute step, 2019-10-05, v3.16.0-rc1~2^2) the source file lookup
is the first time we compute many on-demand structures that depend on
the configuration name. This caused the `$<CONFIG>` generator
expression to evaluate to the upper-case configuration name in some
cases where we used original-case before.
Fix this by switching the source file lookup to the original-case config
name. Add a test covering the symptom that led to the discovery of this
problem.

In a case like
target_link_libraries(targetInOtherDir PUBLIC "$<1:a;b>")
then all entries in the list need to be looked up in the caller's
scope. Previously our `::@(directory-id)` suffix would apply only
to the last entry. Instead surround the entire entry by a pair
`::@(directory-id);...;::@` so that the `::@` syntax can encode
a directory lookup scope change evaluated as the list is processed.
Fixes: #20204
In commit a1ad0a699b (target_link_libraries: Allow use with targets in
other directories, 2018-09-07, v3.13.0-rc1~94^2) we added use of `<...>`
to encode a directory id, but the closing `>` can incorrectly terminate
a surrounding generator expression early. Encode the directory id using
`(...)` instead.
Fixes: #20202
Following commit 49cfd390 (cmExportBuildFileGenerator: improve error
message, 2019-06-26), improve the error message related to installed
export sets by referencing the files which contain the exported target
ambiguously.
Not all of these commands accept non-compilable (i.e., IMPORTED)
targets, so those calls are currently just commented out. If they ever
do start to accept them, the tests should be enabled.
Previously the command did not allow naming targets on the LHS that
were not created in the calling directory. Lift this restriction to
enable more flexible use by projects.
Targets named on the RHS will need to be looked up during generation in
the scope of the call site rather than the scope of the LHS target.
Introduce an internal syntax in `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties
to specify target names that need to be looked up in a directory other
than that containing the target on which the property is set. Add
minimal documentation of the syntax to help users that encounter it.
Unfortunately CMake previously did allow such calls in the case that
only `INTERFACE` libraries are specified, but those libraries would be
looked up in the target's directory rather than the caller's. Add
policy `CMP0079` to enable the new behavior with new lookup scope in a
compatible way.
Fixes: #17943
Revert commit v3.12.0-rc1~82^2 (target_link_libraries: Allow use with
targets in other directories, 2018-05-11). The RHS target scoping and
visibility rules are not clear and will need further investigation
before the feature can be added.

Fixes: #17943
Now, several `INTERFACE_*` properties can be set on `IMPORTED` targets,
not only via `set_property` and `set_target_properties` but also via
`target_compile_definitions`, `target_compile_features`,
`target_compile_options`, `target_include_directories`, `target_sources`
and `target_link_libraries`.

In commit v3.5.0-rc1~43^2 (Fix export of STATIC library PRIVATE
dependencies with CMP0022 NEW, 2016-01-15) we taught
target_link_libraries to generate `$<LINK_ONLY:$<TARGET_NAME:dep>>` in
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES instead of `$<LINK_ONLY:dep>` so that `dep` can
be recognized as a target name and updated during export. However, this
approach does not work when `dep` is just a plain library name and not a
target because `$<TARGET_NAME:...>` requires the name of a reachable
target.
Since we do not know during target_link_libraries whether the name will
correspond to a reachable target or not, we cannot inject the
`$<TARGET_NAME:...>` expression. Revert this change and solve the
original problem instead by teaching the export logic to recognize and
update target names directly in `$<LINK_ONLY:...>` expressions.

The change in commit 27252b24 (cmComputeLinkInformation: Simplify
generator object access, 2015-08-02) broke the conditional use of a
target introduced in commit 41abdc17 (cmGeneratorTarget: Move GetSOName
from cmTarget, 2015-08-04). Restore the conditional lookup. Add a test
case that hacks platform information variables to trigger this code
everywhere.
Since commit v3.3.0-rc1~62^2~5 (cmTarget: Store only cmListFileContext
for CMP0023 handling, 2015-05-18) a call to target_link_libraries on a
target that was defined in another (non-ancestor) directory crashes
because no execution context is left active. Fix this by getting the
execution context from the actual cmMakefile where the current
target_link_libraries call takes place. Test this by verifying that
such calls correctly produce an error diagnostic instead of crashing.
Set the minimum required version of CMake high enough to avoid the
warning for CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32. The warning appears on stderr
and breaks the expected output matching.
Add a new signature to help populate INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES and
LINK_LIBRARIES cleanly in a single call. Add policy CMP0023 to control
whether the keyword signatures can be mixed with uses of the plain
signatures on the same target.
