This file computes an ordered list of link items to use when linking a
single target in one configuration.  Each link item is identified by
the string naming it.  A graph of dependencies is created in which
each node corresponds to one item and directed eges lead from nodes to
those which must *precede* them on the link line.  For example, the
graph

  C -> B -> A

will lead to the link line order

  A B C

The set of items placed in the graph is formed with a breadth-first
search of the link dependencies starting from the main target.

There are two types of items: those with known direct dependencies and
those without known dependencies.  We will call the two types "known
items" and "unknown items", respecitvely.  Known items are those whose
names correspond to targets (built or imported) and those for which an
old-style <item>_LIB_DEPENDS variable is defined.  All other items are
unknown and we must infer dependencies for them.

Known items have dependency lists ordered based on how the user
specified them.  We can use this order to infer potential dependencies
of unknown items.  For example, if link items A and B are unknown and
items X and Y are known, then we might have the following dependency
lists:

  X: Y A B
  Y: A B

The explicitly known dependencies form graph edges

  X <- Y  ,  X <- A  ,  X <- B  ,  Y <- A  ,  Y <- B

We can also infer the edge

  A <- B

because *every* time A appears B is seen on its right.  We do not know
whether A really needs symbols from B to link, but it *might* so we
must preserve their order.  This is the case also for the following
explict lists:

  X: A B Y
  Y: A B

Here, A is followed by the set {B,Y} in one list, and {B} in the other
list.  The intersection of these sets is {B}, so we can infer that A
depends on at most B.  Meanwhile B is followed by the set {Y} in one
list and {} in the other.  The intersection is {} so we can infer that
B has no dependencies.

Let's make a more complex example by adding unknown item C and
considering these dependency lists:

  X: A B Y C
  Y: A C B

The explicit edges are

  X <- Y  ,  X <- A  ,  X <- B  ,  X <- C  ,  Y <- A  ,  Y <- B  ,  Y <- C

For the unknown items, we infer dependencies by looking at the
"follow" sets:

  A: intersect( {B,Y,C} , {C,B} ) = {B,C} ; infer edges  A <- B  ,  A <- C
  B: intersect( {Y,C}   , {}    ) = {}    ; infer no edges
  C: intersect( {}      , {B}   ) = {}    ; infer no edges

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once the complete graph is formed from all known and inferred
dependencies we must use it to produce a valid link line.  If the
dependency graph were known to be acyclic a simple depth-first-search
would produce a correct link line.  Unfortunately we cannot make this
assumption so the following technique is used.

The original graph is converted to a directed acyclic graph in which
each node corresponds to a strongly connected component of the
original graph.  For example, the dependency graph

  X <- A <- B <- C <- A <- Y

contains strongly connected components {X}, {A,B,C}, and {Y}.  The
implied directed acyclic graph (DAG) is

  {X} <- {A,B,C} <- {Y}

The final list of link items is constructed by a series of
depth-first-searches through this DAG of components.  When visiting a
component all outgoing edges are followed first because the neighbors
must precede it.  Once neighbors across all edges have been emitted it
is safe to emit the current component.

Trivial components (those with one item) are handled simply by
emitting the item.  Non-trivial components (those with more than one
item) are assumed to consist only of static libraries that may be
safely repeated on the link line.  We emit members of the component
multiple times (see code below for details).  The final link line for
the example graph might be

  X A B C A B C Y

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The initial exploration of dependencies using a BFS associates an
integer index with each link item.  When the graph is built outgoing
edges are sorted by this index.

This preserves the original link
order as much as possible subject to the dependencies.

After the initial exploration of the link interface tree, any
transitive (dependent) shared libraries that were encountered and not
included in the interface are processed in their own BFS.  This BFS
follows only the dependent library lists and not the link interfaces.
They are added to the link items with a mark indicating that the are
transitive dependencies.  Then cmComputeLinkInformation deals with
them on a per-platform basis.
