From a consistency perspective, I think it'd be better for `libcxxabi` to also refer to a system ABI library, and then use a different name for the in-tree one, perhaps `default`?
I agree with the consistency argument. However, I'd like to avoid `default` since it doesn't convey any information, and it also used to be one of the valid values but it represented "whatever automatically selected ABI we pick", which might not be libc++abi. I'd suggest `libcxxabi` and `intree-libcxxabi`. It's not extremely pretty, but it conveys exactly what it is.
Edit: I actually went ahead and made this change, and I realized that it might be breaking for a bunch of people. Indeed, I think that most people who specify `libcxxabi` are expecting to build against the in-tree one, which is what happens today as long as they have `libcxxabi` in their `LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES`. With this renaming, they would implicitly start building against the system libc++abi, and that might happen silently. I'm not sure I like this. So, here's the diff to implement this change, however I'd rather not apply it unless you think consistency is more important that this concern:

I agree with moving the creation of the target to `import_xx_library`, but I think it makes sense to keep the reference to `libcxx-abi-headers` here since it doesn't exist at the point where `import_xx_library` is defined. I'll also refactor this a tad more to reduce duplication by passing `SHARED|STATIC` into the `import_xx_library` function.
