Handle static libraries similar to shared libraries. Do not pass along
the shared library flags raw as that will pass flags for the linker to
the driver which is incorrect.
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.

When building Swift executables and libraries which import a module, an
implicit link will be added by the driver. Because this links by name
rather than path, the library search path needs to be provided to
indicate where to find the library. For all local dependencies, add the
library paths for the targets when linking. This ensures that you can
link against local libraries without explicitly setting a library path.
Fixes: #19304
This changes the behaviour of the generators to use a per-language
library search path flag. This is needed for multi-language projects
with different compilers (e.g. cl + gfortran). Since the adjusted
variable has been part of the user settings, we control this based on a
policy.

On AIX, plugins meant to be loaded into executables via `dlopen` must be
linked with access to a list of symbols exported from the executable in
order to use them (when not using runtime linking). The AIX linker
supports specifying this list as an "import file" passed on the command
line either via the `-bI:...` option or (with a leading `#! .` line) as
a normal input file like any other library file.
The linker import file plays the same role on AIX as import libraries do
on Windows. Teach CMake to enable its import library abstraction on AIX
for executables with the `ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property set. Teach
our internal `ExportImportList` script to optionally generate a leading
`#! .` line at the top of the generated export/import list. Update our
rule for linking an executable with exports to generate a public-facing
"import library" implemented as an AIX linker import file.
With this approach, our existing infrastructure for handling import
libraries on Windows will now work for AIX linker import files too:
* Plugins that link to their executable's symbols will be automatically
linked using the import file on the command line.
* The executable's import file will be (optionally) installed and
exported for use in linking externally-built plugins.
This will allow executables and their plugins to build even if we later
turn off runtime linking.

The module mode fallback added by commit 22e65d10c1 (find_package: Fixed
CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_PREFER_CONFIG Module fallback, 2019-06-13,
v3.15.0-rc2~6^2) should not be used unless the `find_package` call
allows module mode. Doing so can lead to infinite recursion if a find
module tries to call config mode with `find_package(... NO_MODULE)`.
Fix the logic and add a test case.

Introduce CMake policy `CMP0096` to make `project()` keep leading zeros

Fixes: #19421

On AIX, symbols in executables must be exported in order to be visible
to modules (plugins) they load via `dlopen`. Prior to policy `CMP0065`,
CMake linked all executables with flags to export symbols, but the NEW
behavior for that policy is to do so only for executables that have the
`ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property set. In both cases, CMake has always
used the AIX linker option `-bexpall` option to export symbols from
executables.
This has worked fairly well with the XL compiler, but with the GNU
compiler it works only for C ABI symbols. The reason is that `-bexpall`
does not export symbols starting in `_` but the GNU C++ ABI mangles all
symbols with a leading `_`. Therefore we have only supported C ABI
plugins with the GNU compiler on AIX. Some projects have tried to work
around this by replacing `-bexpall` with `-bexpfull`, but the latter
often exports symbols that we do not want exported.
Avoid using `-bexpall` for executables by instead using by our own
internal `ExportImportList` script to compute symbol export lists from
the object files to be linked into an executable. Pass the explicitly
computed export list to the AIX linker's `-bE:...` option. We already
do this for shared object exports.
