AIX: Add an option to disable automatic exports from shared libraries
Since commit 0f150b69d3 (AIX: Explicitly compute shared object exports for both XL and GNU, 2019-07-11, v3.16.0-rc1~418^2~2) we always export all symbols from shared libraries by default. Add a new target property called `AIX_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS` that can be explicitly set to OFF to suppress this behavior and export no symbols by default. Fixes: #20290

+AIX_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS
+----------------------
+
+On AIX, CMake automatically exports all symbols from shared libraries, and
+from executables with the :prop_tgt:`ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property set.
+Explicitly disable this boolean property to suppress the behavior and
+export no symbols by default. In this case it is expected that the project
+will use other means to export some symbols.
+
+This property is initialized by the value of
+the :variable:`CMAKE_AIX_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS` variable if it is set
+when a target is created.
