    XL: Add support for Ninja and XL Fortran · 19f267c7
    Brad King authored
    The Ninja generator's support for Fortran requires that source files
    be preprocessed explicitly first.  However, the `xlf` compiler does
    not have a simple `-E` option or equivalent to do preprocessing.
    The only documented way to get preprocessed output is to use `-d`
    to leave it behind, but only at an inflexible location.
    
    Instead, create our own `cpp` wrapper script and substitute it for the
    real preprocessor using `-tF -B ...`.  Teach the wrapper to map the
    `cpp` output to the location we need and then invoke the real `cpp`
    underneath.
    
    Fixes: #19450
