On AIX, plugins meant to be loaded into executables via `dlopen` must be linked with access to a list of symbols exported from the executable in order to use them (when not using runtime linking). The AIX linker supports specifying this list as an "import file" passed on the command line either via the `-bI:...` option or (with a leading `#! .` line) as a normal input file like any other library file. The linker import file plays the same role on AIX as import libraries do on Windows. Teach CMake to enable its import library abstraction on AIX for executables with the `ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property set. Teach our internal `ExportImportList` script to optionally generate a leading `#! .` line at the top of the generated export/import list. Update our rule for linking an executable with exports to generate a public-facing "import library" implemented as an AIX linker import file. With this approach, our existing infrastructure for handling impo...
