cmTarget: Add a way to represent imported shared library stubs
Shared library stubs can be used for linking, but not at runtime. Their role is similar to import libraries on Windows, so represent their location with the `IMPORTED_IMPLIB` target property. Fixes: #24940

+imported-implib-only
+--------------------
+
+* On imported shared libraries, the :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED_IMPLIB` target
+ property may now be used without :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED_LOCATION`.
+ This can be used to represent a stub library whose location should not
+ be added as a runtime search path to dependents that link it.
