Simon Tatham c19e7215dd Replace mkfiles.pl with a CMake build system.
This brings various concrete advantages over the previous system:

 - consistent support for out-of-tree builds on all platforms

 - more thorough support for Visual Studio IDE project files

 - support for Ninja-based builds, which is particularly useful on
   Windows where the alternative nmake has no parallel option

 - a really simple set of build instructions that work the same way on
   all the major platforms (look how much shorter README is!)

 - better decoupling of the project configuration from the toolchain
   configuration, so that my Windows cross-building doesn't need
   (much) special treatment in CMakeLists.txt

 - configure-time tests on Windows as well as Linux, so that a lot of
   ad-hoc #ifdefs second-guessing a particular feature's presence from
   the compiler version can now be replaced by tests of the feature
   itself

Also some longer-term software-engineering advantages:

 - other people have actually heard of CMake, so they'll be able to
   produce patches to the new build setup more easily

 - unlike the old mkfiles.pl, CMake is not my personal problem to
   maintain

 - most importantly, mkfiles.pl was just a horrible pile of
   unmaintainable cruft, which even I found it painful to make changes
   to or to use, and desperately needed throwing in the bin. I've
   already thrown away all the variants of it I had in other projects
   of mine, and was only delaying this one so we could make the 0.75
   release branch first.

This change comes with a noticeable build-level restructuring. The
previous Recipe worked by compiling every object file exactly once,
and then making each executable by linking a precisely specified
subset of the same object files. But in CMake, that's not the natural
way to work - if you write the obvious command that puts the same
source file into two executable targets, CMake generates a makefile
that compiles it once per target. That can be an advantage, because it
gives you the freedom to compile it differently in each case (e.g.
with a #define telling it which program it's part of). But in a
project that has many executable targets and had carefully contrived
to _never_ need to build any module more than once, all it does is
bloat the build time pointlessly!

To avoid slowing down the build by a large factor, I've put most of
the modules of the code base into a collection of static libraries
organised vaguely thematically (SSH, other backends, crypto, network,
...). That means all those modules can still be compiled just once
each, because once each library is built it's reused unchanged for all
the executable targets.

One upside of this library-based structure is that now I don't have to
manually specify exactly which objects go into which programs any more
- it's enough to specify which libraries are needed, and the linker
will figure out the fine detail automatically. So there's less
maintenance to do in CMakeLists.txt when the source code changes.

But that reorganisation also adds fragility, because of the trad Unix
linker semantics of walking along the library list once each, so that
cyclic references between your libraries will provoke link errors. The
current setup builds successfully, but I suspect it only just manages
it.

(In particular, I've found that MinGW is the most finicky on this
score of the Windows compilers I've tried building with. So I've
included a MinGW test build in the new-look Buildscr, because
otherwise I think there'd be a significant risk of introducing
MinGW-only build failures due to library search order, which wasn't a
risk in the previous library-free build organisation.)

In the longer term I hope to be able to reduce the risk of that, via
gradual reorganisation (in particular, breaking up too-monolithic
modules, to reduce the risk of knock-on references when you included a
module for function A and it also contains function B with an
unsatisfied dependency you didn't really need). Ideally I want to
reach a state in which the libraries all have sensibly described
purposes, a clearly documented (partial) order in which they're
permitted to depend on each other, and a specification of what stubs
you have to put where if you're leaving one of them out (e.g.
nocrypto) and what callbacks you have to define in your non-library
objects to satisfy dependencies from things low in the stack (e.g.
out_of_memory()).

One thing that's gone completely missing in this migration,
unfortunately, is the unfinished MacOS port linked against Quartz GTK.
That's because it turned out that I can't currently build it myself,
on my own Mac: my previous installation of GTK had bit-rotted as a
side effect of an Xcode upgrade, and I haven't yet been able to
persuade jhbuild to make me a new one. So I can't even build the MacOS
port with the _old_ makefiles, and hence, I have no way of checking
that the new ones also work. I hope to bring that port back to life at
some point, but I don't want it to block the rest of this change.

*/
/*
TODO list for a sensible GTK3 PuTTY/pterm on OS X:
Still to do on the application menu bar: items that have to vary with
context or user action (saved sessions and mid-session special
commands), and disabling/enabling the main actions in parallel with
their counterparts in the Ctrl-rightclick context menu.
Mouse wheel events and trackpad scrolling gestures don't work quite
right in the terminal drawing area. This seems to be a combination of
two things, neither of which I completely understand yet. Firstly, on
OS X GTK my trackpad seems to generate GDK scroll events for which
gdk_event_get_scroll_deltas returns integers rather than integer
multiples of 1/30, so we end up scrolling by very large amounts;
secondly, the window doesn't seem to receive a GTK "draw" event until
after the entire scroll gesture is complete, which means we don't get
constant visual feedback on how much we're scrolling by.
There doesn't seem to be a resize handle on terminal windows. Then
again, they do seem to _be_ resizable; the handle just isn't shown.
Perhaps that's a feature (certainly in a scrollbarless configuration
the handle gets in the way of the bottom right character cell in the
terminal itself), but it would be nice to at least understand _why_ it
happens and perhaps include an option to put it back again.
A slight oddity with menus that pop up directly under the mouse
pointer: mousing over the menu items doesn't highlight them initially,
but if I mouse off the menu and back on (without un-popping-it-up)
then suddenly that does work. I don't know if this is something I can
fix, though; it might very well be a quirk of the underlying GTK.
Does OS X have a standard system of online help that I could tie into?
Need to work out what if anything we can do with Pageant on OS X.
Perhaps it's too much bother and we should just talk to the
system-provided SSH agent? Or perhaps not.
Nice-to-have: a custom right-click menu from the application's dock
tile, listing the saved sessions for quick launch. As far as I know
there's nothing built in to GtkApplication that can produce this, but
it's possible we might be able to drop a piece of native Cocoa code in
under ifdef, substituting an application delegate of our own which
forwards all methods we're not interested in to the GTK-provided one?
At the point where this becomes polished enough to publish pre-built,
I suppose I'll have to look into OS X code signing.
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GTK%2B/OSX/Bundling has some links.
