It's not enough to detect that the linker is ld64: gcc, icc, and vanilla
clang all use ld64 on macoOS. Instead we have to detect the class of the
compiler, and determine if it's an Apple Compiler or a vanilla one.
Without this, MSVC and MSVC_VERSION won't be set by CMake during
platform detection, and the compiler will be an undefined mixture of
GNU and MSVC. In particular, find_package(opencv) will fail on Windows
when building with MSVC.
This is required to make `-include /path/to/custom/target.hpp`
work. This setup is used by wxWidgets and this PR is
required to use wxWidgets as a CMake subproject.
Otherwise we can end up finding dependencies from the build machine for
the host machine, which is incorrect. This alters cmake, pkg-config, and
all config-tool based dependencies.
Fixes: #7276
This is done with the new cmake subprojects options object
that is similar to the already exisiting configuration data
object. It is consumed by the new `options` kwarg of the
cmake.subproject function.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.

For instance if C:/Program Files (x86)/folder is passed to _guess_files, it would resolve to ['C:/Program Files', '(x86)/folder'] since C:/Program Files is an actual file location that can exist.
On some systems the binary 'cmake' for version 3 is named 'cmake3',
therefor printing its version number prints:
'cmake3 version X.Y.Z' instead of 'cmake version X.Y.Z'
This '3' digit in the middle breaks the regular expression
extracting the version number.
The following fix permit both way to work and the regexp to
match the proper version number.

Doing this by hand is fraught with corner cases, and we're running into
some of those problems already. setuptools pkg_resource is a well tested
solution for not running into corner cases, and we already rely on
setuptools to make our entry point scripts work, so we might as well
make us of the other things it can solve for us.
