Generator: support per-language link library flag
This enables the use of MSVC and Swift on Windows in a single project. MSVC uses no flag to indicate linked libraries while Swift uses `-l`. Add support for a language specific link library flag which takes precedence over the global `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FLAG` which preserves compatibility with earlier releases.
