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.
Replace the members for the Makefile and the Error with a
cmExecutionStatus. Re-implement GetMakefile and SetError based on that.
Both functions should be called directly on the cmExecutionStatus that is
passed to InitialPass. This will help us make all Commands immutable and
remove the need for cloning.
They are unused, but if someone used them they would lead to
problems since they would copy the internal raw pointers
and the destructor would cause double delete
Suppress some cases in `Source/cmGeneratorExpressionNode.cxx` and
`Source/cmUVHandlePtr.h` where a few older compilers require a
user-defined default constructor (with `{}`).
These new capabilities enable to manage link directories
Two new properties:
* target properties: LINK_DIRECTORIES and INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES
One new command
* target_link_directories(): to populate target properties

Run the `clang-format.bash` script to update all our C and C++ code to a
new style defined by `.clang-format`. Use `clang-format` version 6.0.

* Change some functions to take `std::string` instead of
`const char*` in the following classes: `cmMakeFile`, `cmake`,
`cmCoreTryCompile`, `cmSystemTools`, `cmState`, `cmLocalGenerator`
and a few others.
* Greatly reduce using of `const char*` overloads for
`cmSystemTools::MakeDirectory` and `cmSystemTools::RelativePath`.
* Remove many redundant `c_str()` conversions throughout the code.
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.
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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.
