[compiler-rt][cmake] Provide empty version of enable_execute_stack for baremetal targets

[clm]

Summary

This patch allows compiler-rt to build for targets that don't have support for mprotect (ie. baremetal) by providing an empty version of enable_execute_stack.

Okay to commit?

Thanks,
Catherine

The first version of the patch failed to include the empty version of enable_execute_stack. The diff is now updated.

This blob of cmake goop would be simplified if, rather than having two files for enable_execute_stack{_empty,}.c, the flag just controlled the body's existence in enable_execute_stack.c.

LLVM style nit: we don't put a space between function names and the opening paren.

Why do you call __enable_execute_stack in first place? I would just leave it and fix any potential callers.

GCC inserts calls to it for nested functions.

To expand on what I said on IRC:

(1) I don't think anything should normally call it. For GCC, it depends on the target configuration whether it believes __enable_execute_stack is supported/required or not.
(2) We shouldn't fail to build compiler-rt for this.
(3) It is better to fail linking a user program with this when it is not expected / wasted code than silently hiding the problem.

As such, I'd prefer to just skip the whole default implementation for platforms where it shouldn't be used. This includes bare-metal.

I've now updated the patch based on Joerg's comments. This version checks the setting of COMPILER_RT_BAREMETAL_BUILD before building enable_execute_stack.c.
