Languages: Add support for Objective-C

Add entries in Modules and Modules/Platform to support
Objective-C compiler determination and identification.
Add Modules to check Objective-C compiler flags, source
compilations, program checks, etc...

Use OBJC as the designator of the language, eg:

project(foo OBJC)

Add various tests for Objective-C language features.  Add
tests to preserve C++ handling of .m and .mm files when
OBJC is not a configured language.

+
+.. command:: check_objc_compiler_flag
+
+  .. code-block:: cmake
+
+    check_objc_compiler_flag(<flag> <var>)
+
+  Check that the ``<flag>`` is accepted by the compiler without
+  a diagnostic.  Stores the result in an internal cache entry
+  named ``<var>``.
+
+This command temporarily sets the ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS`` variable
+and calls the ``check_objc_source_compiles`` macro from the
+:module:`CheckOBJCSourceCompiles` module.  See documentation of that
+module for a listing of variables that can otherwise modify the build.
+
+A positive result from this check indicates only that the compiler did not
+issue a diagnostic message when given the flag.  Whether the flag has any
+effect or even a specific one is beyond the scope of this module.
+
+.. note::
+  Since the :command:`try_compile` command forwards flags from variables
+  like :variable:`CMAKE_OBJC_FLAGS <CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS>`, unknown flags
+  in such variables may cause a false negative for this check.

+                               [FAIL_REGEX <regex1> [<regex2>...]])
+
+  Check that the source supplied in ``<code>`` can be compiled as a Objectie-C source
+  file and linked as an executable (so it must contain at least a ``main()``
+  function). The result will be stored in the internal cache variable specified
+  by ``<resultVar>``, with a boolean true value for success and boolean false
+  for failure. If ``FAIL_REGEX`` is provided, then failure is determined by
+  checking if anything in the output matches any of the specified regular
+  expressions.
+
+  The underlying check is performed by the :command:`try_compile` command. The
+  compile and link commands can be influenced by setting any of the following
+  variables prior to calling ``check_objc_source_compiles()``:
+
+  ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS``
+    Additional flags to pass to the compiler. Note that the contents of
+    :variable:`CMAKE_OBJC_FLAGS <CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS>` and its associated
+    configuration-specific variable are automatically added to the compiler
+    command before the contents of ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS``.
+
+  ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS``
+    A :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of compiler definitions of the form
+    ``-DFOO`` or ``-DFOO=bar``. A definition for the name specified by
+    ``<resultVar>`` will also be added automatically.
+
+  ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES``
+    A :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of header search paths to pass to
+    the compiler. These will be the only header search paths used by
+    ``try_compile()``, i.e. the contents of the :prop_dir:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES`
+    directory property will be ignored.
+
+  ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS``
+    A :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of options to add to the link

+    :ref:`Imported Targets <Imported Targets>` (see :command:`try_compile` for
+    further details).
+
+  ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET``
+    If this variable evaluates to a boolean true value, all status messages
+    associated with the check will be suppressed.
+
+  The check is only performed once, with the result cached in the variable
+  named by ``<resultVar>``. Every subsequent CMake run will re-use this cached
+  value rather than performing the check again, even if the ``<code>`` changes.
+  In order to force the check to be re-evaluated, the variable named by
+  ``<resultVar>`` must be manually removed from the cache.
