Setting this option enables address sanitizer and undefined behavior
sanitizer, when available for the given compiler & platform.
It does not currently check whether the architecture is supported,
as CMake does not offer an easy way how to check it. Since we are
mostly developing for x86 & amd64 this is not a huge problem and it's
also a developer only setting.
This option should be provided when calling to the cmake command.
Otherwise, we overwrite the value even when the user pass the value
in the command line.
We use now the Doxyfile.in template file with some variables that are
replaced at configuration time by absolute paths. Therefore, we can run
later the doxygen command with absolute paths from the
PROJECT_BINARY_DIR.
The CMake 'doc' target is added only if doxygen is available in the
system.
Thanks to this upgrade the cmake code that handles the CURL dependency
can be simplified. Now we can use the shared version of CURL in all the
platforms. However we will use for the moment the static version on Mac,
since we are having some issues with 'make tests'. Once those tests are
migrated to python we can also use the shared version there.
I tried to use directly the private OBJECT library (exiv2lib_int) in the unit_tests targets, but the private objects have dependencies on the public symbols (circular dependency)
and therefore it is impossible to test the private code with that approach with the current design of the library.
Starting from CMake 3.3 we can use the variable CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS to export all the symbols of a shared library:

Even having the opportunity to use this variable (that will be only used when EXIV2_BUILD_UNIT_TESTS is enabled) the previous commits are still valid.
It is interesting to clearly differentiate between the public and private code of the library. Enforcing this, make us think twice before putting code in the public
part of the library.
