Istvan Bisz 26e6162a82 cmake: Eclipse CDT4 generator amendment
1. The generator handles just the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS.
   (See: __ZEPHYR_SUPERVISOR__)
   For the defines in INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
   a special handling is necessary.

   Solution:
   The amendment function generates a macro header file
   ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/zephyr/include/generated/cmake_intdef.h
   based on INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS and appends the
   defines from the file to
   CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR_C_SYSTEM_DEFINED_MACROS.

2. Eclipse CDT4 indexer has problems with CMake 'Eclipse CDT4 - x'
   generator projects that use mixed C/C++.
   The Eclipse CDT4 indexer is showing a lot of unresolved symbol
   errors, when the project was created with CMake generator and
   the code is a mix of C and C++.
   The root cause of the problem is the g++ built-in __cplusplus macro,
   that is passed by CMake generator in the '.cproject' file.
   The defines in '.cproject' are always the same for C and C++.
   In mixed C/C++ projects, the header files often contain the following
   lines to let C++ code call the C functions:

   #ifdef __cplusplus
   extern "C" {
   #endif

   < header content >

   #ifdef __cplusplus
   }
   #endif

   Whenever the Eclipse CDT4 indexer compiles the code for
   code analysis, it has the macro __cplusplus set,
   independent of whether standard C or C++ source files are compiled.
   The 'extern "C"' confuses the standard C compilation and the indexer
   is messed up.

   Solution:
   The amendment function deletes the __cplusplus entry from
   CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR_CXX_SYSTEM_DEFINED_MACROS.

3. The amendment function appends the defines from
   ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/zephyr/include/generated/autoconf.h to
   CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR_C_SYSTEM_DEFINED_MACROS.
