CUDA: Static libraries can now explicitly resolve device symbols
If a static library has the property CUDA_RESOLVE_DEVICE_SYMBOLS enabled it will now perform the device link step. The normal behavior is to delay calling device link until the static library is consumed by a shared library or an executable.

+CUDA_RESOLVE_DEVICE_SYMBOLS
+---------------------------
+
+CUDA only: Enables device linking for the specific static library target
+
+If set this will enable device linking on this static library target. Normally
+device linking is deferred until a shared library or executable is generated,
+allowing for multiple static libraries to resolve device symbols at the same
+time.
+
+For instance:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+ set_property(TARGET mystaticlib PROPERTY CUDA_RESOLVE_DEVICE_SYMBOLS ON)
