Add export linker flags policy to cmake (#251)

Add policy CMP0056, which honors the link flags in try_compile and try_run. This allows for building against non-system libc++ by providing the correct -L and rpath options in a containing project. For example: set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS} -L ${LLVM_ROOT}/lib -l c++ -l c++abi") set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS} -Wl,-rpath,${LLVM_ROOT}/lib")
