Log:
Add a Cross-compilation toolchain file for MSVC.

With this patch, you can now cross-compile for Windows
on non-Windows hosts.

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D39814

This allows cross-compiling for windows on other platforms.

+# Cross toolchain configuration for using clang-cl on non-Windows hosts to
+# target MSVC.
+#
+# Usage:
+# cmake -G Ninja
+#    -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/this/file
+#    -DLLVM_NATIVE_TOOLCHAIN=/path/to/llvm/installation
+#    -DMSVC_BASE=/path/to/MSVC/system/libraries/and/includes
+#    -DWINSDK_BASE=/path/to/windows-sdk
+#    -DWINSDK_VER=windows sdk version folder name
+#
+# LLVM_NATIVE_TOOLCHAIN:
+#   *Absolute path* to a folder containing the toolchain which will be used to
+#   build.  At a minimum, this folder should have a bin directory with a
+#   copy of clang-cl, clang, clang++, and lld-link, as well as a lib directory
+#   containing clang's system resource directory.
+#
+# MSVC_BASE:
+#   *Absolute path* to the folder containing MSVC headers and system libraries.
+#   The layout of the folder matches that which is intalled by MSVC 2017 on
+#   Windows, and should look like this:
+#
+# ${MSVC_BASE}
+#   include
+#     vector
+#     stdint.h
+#     etc...
+#   lib
+#     x64
+#       libcmt.lib
+#       msvcrt.lib
+#       etc...
+#     x86
+#       libcmt.lib
+#       msvcrt.lib
+#       etc...
+#
+# For versions of MSVC < 2017, or where you have a hermetic toolchain in a
+# custom format, you must use symlinks or restructure it to look like the above.
+#
+# WINSDK_BASE:
+#   Together with WINSDK_VER, determines the location of Windows SDK headers
+#   and libraries.
+#
+# WINSDK_VER:
+#   Together with WINSDK_BASE, determines the locations of Windows SDK headers
+#   and libraries.
+#
+# WINSDK_BASE and WINSDK_VER work together to define a folder layout that matches
+# that of the Windows SDK installation on a standard Windows machine.  It should
+# match the layout described below.
+#
+# Note that if you install Windows SDK to a windows machine and simply copy the
+# files, it will already be in the correct layout.
+#
+# ${WINSDK_BASE}
+#   Include
+#     ${WINSDK_VER}
+#       shared
+#       ucrt
+#       um
+#         windows.h
+#         etc...
+#   Lib
+#     ${WINSDK_VER}
+#       ucrt
+#         x64
+#         x86
+#           ucrt.lib
+#           etc...
+#       um
+#         x64
+#         x86
+#           kernel32.lib
+#           etc
+#
+# IMPORTANT: In order for this to work, you will need a valid copy of the Windows
+# SDK and C++ STL headers and libraries on your host.  Additionally, since the
+# Windows libraries and headers are not case-correct, you will need to have these
+# mounted in a case-insensitive mount.  This requires one command to set up.
+#
+# ~/src: mkdir winsdk
+# ~/src: mkdir winsdk.icase
+# ~/src: ciopfs winsdk/ winsdk.icase
+#
+# Now copy or otherwise install your headers and libraries to the winsdk.icase folder
+# and use *that* folder as the path when configuring CMake.
+#
+# TODO: We could also provide a CMake option -DUSE_ICASE_VFS_OVERLAY=ON/OFF that would
+# make this optional.  For now, we require ciopfs.
+
+
+# When configuring CMake with a toolchain file against a top-level CMakeLists.txt,
+# it will actually run CMake many times, once for each small test program used to
+# determine what features a compiler supports.  Unfortunately, none of these
+# invocations share a CMakeCache.txt with the top-level invocation, meaning they
+# won't see the value of any arguments the user passed via -D.  Since these are
+# necessary to properly configure MSVC in both the top-level configuration as well as
+# all feature-test invocations, we set environment variables with the values so that
+# these environments get inherited by child invocations.
