add_library: Document POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE default (#13479)
The POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property documentation states that its default value depends on whether SHARED or MODULE is given to the add_library call. Since these are options to the add_library command we should document on the command how they affect the property. While at it, add a missing space to the POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property documentation.
