Summary:
Relands https://reviews.llvm.org/D70815.
The original commit set `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` to
`STATIC_LIBRARY` globally in libunwind/CMakeLists.txt, which effectively
disabled the linking step in CMake checks.
This broke some builds (see 938c70b86c).
Here we set CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE to
STATIC_LIBRARY only when checking for presence of the `-funwind-tables`
flag, and then set it back to the original value so it doesn't affect
other checks.

This reverts commit b3fdf33ba6.
This change broke building libunwind for Windows/MinGW, and broke
on aspect of the CMake tests in libunwind in general.
After set(CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE STATIC_LIBRARY), CMake
skips the linking step in tests, but cmake/config-ix.cmake also
does a few checks for functions in libraries (looking for whether
-lc provides fopen and whether -ldl provides dladdr).
As CMake only tests building a static library, these tests
incorrectly succeed and CMake concludes "Looking for fopen in c -
found" and "Looking for dladdr in dl - found", while building
then fails at the end with errors about unable to find -lc and -ldl.
Summary:
Or, rather, don't accidentally forget to pass it.
This is aimed to solve the problem discussed in [this thread](http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-November/136890.html), and to fix [a year-old bug](https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38468).
TL;DR: when building libunwind for ARM Linux, we **need** libunwind to be built with the `-funwind-tables` flag, because, well ARM EHABI needs unwind info produced by this flag. Without the flag all the procedures in libunwind are marked `.cantunwind`, which causes all sorts of bad things. From `_Unwind_Backtrace` not working, to C++ exceptions not being caught (which is the aforementioned bug is about).
Previously, this flag was not added because the CMake check `add_compile_flags_if_supported(-funwind-tables)` produced a false negative. Why? With this flag, the compiler generates calls to the `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0` symbol, which is defined in libunwind itself and obviously is not available at configure time, before libunwind is built. This led to failure at link time during the CMake check. We handle this by disabling the linker for CMake checks in linbunwind.
Also, this patch introduces a lit feature `libunwind-arm-ehabi`, which is used to mark the `signal_frame.pass.cpp` test as unsupported (as was advised by @miyuki in D70397).

There are several changes:
- Don't stringify Pythonized bools (that's why we're Pythonizing them)
- Support specifying target and sysroot via CMake variables
- Use consistent spelling for --target, --sysroot, --gcc-toolchain

Mostly cargo-culted from libcxxabi, since the unwinder was forked from there in
the first place. There may still be cruft that's only applicable to libcxxabi,
but that can be addressed in-tree.
