The support of PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES has been broken since
the transition to CMake in 12f8f76165.
The intention was probably to allow users / projects to adjust
PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES by setting a CMake cache variable.
The implementation tests for the CMake variable (local scope or cache)
PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES, but it never uses such CMake variable.
Instead it uses a CMake global property named
PROPERTY_LINKER_SCRIPT_DEFINES. CMake variables and CMake global
properties are two very different things, and therefore the current
implementation has never worked. The fact that no one has never noticed
this flaw, means that the feature has never been used as intended.
Simplify the code by removing the use of the global CMake property and
instead set the value of the property on the linker script
pre-processing invocation.

Differently from other libraries, which are included whole in the final
Zephyr ELF, libkernel.a itself isn't. Assuming this is intended to
enable optimisations (if it isn't, this patch will break things) - linker
can remove parts of the kernel that are not used by the application.
However, when considering Linkable Loadable Extensions (llext), this
optimisations can be counterproductive: for instance, syscalls that are
not used by the application won't be available for extensions. It won't
matter if someone "EXPORT_SYMBOL" for them, or even try to keep them
using LINKER_KEEP, they'll be gone.
To avoid that, this patches includes, when CONFIG_LLEXT=y, libkernel.a
inside the linker "whole-archive" block. This ends up making it consider
libkernel.a as a library whose all symbols should be kept. Note this
doesn't mean that all symbols will be there - things compiled out via
Kconfig will naturally still be out.

With CMake 3.20 relative path inside DEPFILEs are treated relative to
CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR and are transformed by CMake in its internal
dep file.
Therefore Zephyr build system must no longer add `base_name` to the
`-MT` argument for the preprocessor.

Zeroing the BSS and copying data to RAM with regular memset/memcpy may
cause problems when those functions are assuming a fully initialized
system for their optimizations to work e.g. some instructions require
an active MMU, but turning the MMU on needs the .bss section to be
cleared first, etc.
Commit c5b898743a ("aarch64: Fix alignment fault on z_bss_zero()")
provides a detailed explanation of such a case.
Replacing z_bss_zero() with an architecture specific one is problematic
as the former may see new sections added to it that would be missed by
the later. The same reasoning goes for z_data_copy().
Let's make maintenance much easier by providing weak versions of
memset/memcpy that can be overridden by architecture-specific safe
versions when needed.

Currently all calls to `configure_linker_script()` specifies `-D<name>`
when calling `configure_linker_script()`.
This works well for the gcc pre-processed ld linker script templates,
but Zephyr also supports a CMake linker script generator which can be
used for ld scripts and armlink scatter files.
In this case, a `-D` must be stripped.
This commit changes this so that Zephyr CMake build system calls
`configure_linker_script()` without `-D`.
Thus the `LINKER_SCRIPT` choice can decide how this information should
be passed to underlying linker script functionality, that is `-D` for
linker script template and CMake variable for the CMake linker script
generator.

entirely.

The current gen_handles.py script uses linker defined symbols.
As preparation for support of more linkers the gen_tables.py now takes
the device start symbol as argument.
For example, armlink and ld uses different symbols.
With ld those can be named explicitly, but for armlink the linker
decides the names.
For ld, Zephyr defines: __device_start
For armlink, the symbol is defined as: Image$$<section name>$$Base
Therefore knowledge of the linker symbol to be used must be passed to
gen_handles.py so that the correct symbol can be used for locating
devices.
To support this change, the creation of the asm, compiler, compiler-cpp,
linker targets has been moved from target_toolchain_flags.cmake to
target_toolchain.cmake.
All linkers has been updated to support the use of the
device_start_symbol on the linker target.
List of linkers updated:
- ld
- lld
- arcmwdt

The constructors of static objects are stored in ".ctors"
section. In case of MWDT toolchain we have incompatible
".ctors" section format with GNU toolchain. So let's use

in case of MWDT toolchain usage.
As it is done for GNU toolchain We call constructors of

-P is an option that was inherited from the old MetaWare compiler.
[ccac foo.c -P] is actually a shortcut for: [ccac -E foo.c -o foo.i].
In new version of mwdt, -P option can't redirect the output. we need
to use -E option, which works in all versions.
-P: Preprocess the file and write it to <src>.i (C) or
<src>.ii(C++). No compilation is performed.
-E: Run preprocessor only.

Fixes: #28847
This commit fixes two places that was causing gen_relocate_app to fail
in windows.
gen_relocate_app.py now splits only on first `:` in
`<MEM_REGION>:<file>`.
Windows contains `:` in path, thus only first `:` is valid for splitting
mem region and file path.
Second part of the issue is fixed in CMake where `'` was used for
quoting of command arguments.
This causes a file not found on Windows because the final `'` would be
treated as part of the filename. Similar the first `'` would be treated
as path of the mem region name.
This is fixed by using `"` for quoting, which works correctly on all
platforms.

-Hnocopyr option suppress copyright message in case of LDAC linker
but in case of LLDAC linker somehow it leads to partial linking
and generation output file with relocations. Looks like we
are converting MWDT option to LLVM option incorrectly in this
case. Among the partial linking itself it may cause build errors
when 'elf.get_dwarf_info' from 'gen_kobject_list.py' meets the
arch-specific relocation which isn't supported by 'elftools'
It requires future investigation, let's disable -Hnocopyr for now
to have elf image linked correctly.

The current zephyr_get_compile_<type> flags returns compile / include
flags based on generator expressions.
But they also included a space.
This have the unintended side-effect that when the properties are
fetched into another variable and later appended to lists in order to
finally be used in a CMake target function / custom command, then CMake
in some cases will quote the string, creating a quoted argument like:
"arg0 arg1 arg2: instead of individual arguments like: "arg0" "arg1"
"arg2".
By using $<SEMICOLON>, then arguments are seperated correctly.
