[CMake] Prefer multi-target variables over generic target variables in runtimes build
Runtimes variables in a multi-target environment are defined like:
RUNTIMES_target_VARIABLE_NAME
RUNTIMES_target+multi_VARIABLE_NAME
In my case, I have a downstream runtimes cache that does the following:
set(RUNTIMES_${target}+except_LIBCXXABI_ENABLE_EXCEPTIONS ON CACHE BOOL "")
set(RUNTIMES_${target}_LIBCXX_ENABLE_EXCEPTIONS OFF CACHE BOOL "")
I found that I was always getting the 'target' variable value (OFF) in
my 'target+except' build, which was unexpected. This behavior was
caused by the loop in llvm/runtimes/CMakeLists.txt that runs through all
variable names, adding '-DVARIABLE_NAME=' options to the subsequent
external project's cmake command.
The issue is that the loop does a single pass, such that if the 'target'
value appears in the cache after the 'target+except' value, the 'target'
value will take precedence. I suggest in my change here that the more
specific 'target+except' value should take precedence always, without
relying on CMake cache ordering.
