CMake: Conditionally allow the creation of broken symlinks.

Browse source 
The CMake build will try to create broken symlinks on Unix and Unix-like
platforms. Cygwin and MSYS2 are Unix-like, but may not be able to create
broken symlinks. The value of the CYGWIN or MSYS environment variables
determine if broken symlinks are valid.

The default for MSYS2 does not allow for broken symlinks, so the CMake
build has been broken for MSYS2 since commit
80a1a8bb83.

# With Windows Cygwin and MSYS2 the symlinking is complicated. Both
# of these environments set the UNIX variable so they will try to
# make the symlinks. The ability for Cygwin and MSYS2 to make
# broken symlinks is determined by the CYGWIN and MSYS2 environment
# variables, repectively. Broken symlinks are needed for the man
# page symlinks and for determining if the xz and lzma symlinks need
# to depend on the xz target or not. If broken symlinks cannot be
# made then the xz binary must be created before the symlinks.

# symlinks are not supported.
#
# 3. "nativestrict". Create symlinks as native Windows symlinks
# if supported by the system. If the target of the symlink
# does not exist or the creation of the symlink fails for any
# reason, do not create the symlink.

# 4. "sys". Create symlinks as plain files with a special

# So, the only case we care about for broken symlinks is

# symlinks are allowed. If the env variable is not set the

# assigned one of the four values, then the default is the same
