Large parts the library weren't being used, and the parts that were was overly
abstracted for our use case. Additionally, part of its use case was to abstract
pkgconfig boilerplate, which is no longer needed as pkgconfig has been removed
in favor of relying on cmake alone in 09118052ce.
The variables are not meant to be defined there really, but only with
the third-party project.
Using them, e.g. with the following, would actually result in libvterm
not being found then:
make CMAKE_EXTRA_FLAGS="-DUSE_BUNDLED_LIBVTERM=ON" \
DEPS_CMAKE_FLAGS="-DUSE_BUNDLED=OFF -DUSE_BUNDLED_LIBVTERM=ON"
In https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/6357 they were renamed to
`USE_BUNDLED_X` from `X_USE_BUNDLED`, but the above reasoning applies
to the old names, too.
Internally `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` is used to add the built/bundled third
party packages for `find_package`, so there is no reason to e.g. query
the values via `load_cache` for example from the third-party project.
This achieves several goals:
* Less reliance on scripts so we have better portability to Windows
(though we still have a ways to go for proper Windows support).
Luajit, luarocks, moonscript, and busted are all installed via CMake
now.
* Trying to make use of pkg-config to get the correct libraries. The
latest libuv is still broken in this regard, but we'll at least be in
a position to use it.
* Allow the use of Ninja or make. The former runs faster in many
environments, and automatically makes use of parallel builds.
This also allows for system installed dependencies--though not through
the Makefile just yet--and adds support for FreeBSD.
This also make us build libuv and luajit as static libraries only, since
we're only concerned about having static libraries for our bundled
dependencies.
