install(TARGETS): Add the COMPONENT_NAMESPACE generic argument

friendlyanon requested to merge friendlyanon/cmake:install-targets-component-prefix into master

This argument will simplify the install(TARGETS) form of the command, by allowing the user to set a namespace for all groups. The suffix will be set to either "Runtime" or "Development" by default to enforce convention.

Groups that fall into the runtime category: BUNDLE, FRAMEWORK, LIBRARY, RESOURCE, RUNTIME
Groups that fall into the development category: ARCHIVE, OBJECTS, PUBLIC_HEADER, PRIVATE_HEADER

This feature will also set the NAMELINK_COMPONENT for the LIBRARY group to the development component name by default.

Fixes: #22699
