*	target_link_libraries: Fix out-of-dir linking of a list of targets	Brad King	2020-01-16	1	-1/+19
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	In a case like target_link_libraries(targetInOtherDir PUBLIC "$<1:a;b>") then all entries in the list need to be looked up in the caller's scope. Previously our `::@(directory-id)` suffix would apply only to the last entry. Instead surround the entire entry by a pair `::@(directory-id);...;::@` so that the `::@` syntax can encode a directory lookup scope change evaluated as the list is processed. Fixes: #20204
*	target_link_libraries: Allow use with targets in other directories	Brad King	2018-09-12	1	-0/+17
	Previously the command did not allow naming targets on the LHS that were not created in the calling directory. Lift this restriction to enable more flexible use by projects. Targets named on the RHS will need to be looked up during generation in the scope of the call site rather than the scope of the LHS target. Introduce an internal syntax in `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties to specify target names that need to be looked up in a directory other than that containing the target on which the property is set. Add minimal documentation of the syntax to help users that encounter it. Unfortunately CMake previously did allow such calls in the case that only `INTERFACE` libraries are specified, but those libraries would be looked up in the target's directory rather than the caller's. Add policy `CMP0079` to enable the new behavior with new lookup scope in a compatible way. Fixes: #17943
