Subject: [PATCH 1/4] [libc++] Replace LIBCXX_ENABLE_STATIC_ABI_LIBRARY &
 friends by a new LIBCXX_CXX_ABI choice

Instead of having complicated options like LIBCXX_ENABLE_STATIC_ABI_LIBRARY
and LIBCXX_STATICALLY_LINK_ABI_IN_STATIC_LIBRARY, introduce a more general
mechanism to select the ABI library used by libc++. The new mechanism allows
specifying the ABI library for the static libc++ and the shared libc++
separately, and allows selecting a "merged" flavor of libc++ for both
the in-tree libc++abi and any external static ABI library.

As an example, one can now specify arbitrary combinations like
   -DLIBCXX_ABILIB_FOR_SHARED="shared-libcxxabi"
   -DLIBCXX_ABILIB_FOR_STATIC="merged-libcxxabi"

which would have been impossible or very brittle in the past. In theory,
one can even select an entirely different ABI library for the static and
the shared libc++ (e.g. libc++abi vs libsupc++), although supporting that
is not a primary goal of this patch but merely a result of the general
mechanism.

Closes #77655
Fixes #57759
