Summary:
This is the second attempt at allowing for the use of libraries that the linker cannot find. The first attempt used `CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH` and `find_library` to select which ABI library should be used. There were a number of problems with this approach:
- `find_library` didn't work with cmake targets (ie in-tree libcxxabi build)
- It wasn't always possible to determine where `find_library` actually found your library.
- `target_link_libraries` inserted the path of the ABI library into libc++'s RPATH when `find_library` was used.
- Linking libc++ and it's ABI library is a special case. It's a lot easier to keep it simple.
After discussion with @cbergstrum a new approach was decided upon.
This patch achieve the same ends by simply using `LIBCXX_CXX_ABI_LIBRARY_PATH` to specify where to find the library (if the linker won't find it). When this variable is defined it is simply added as a library search path when linking libc++. It is a lot easier to duplicate this behavior in LIT. It also prevents libc++ from being linked with an RPATH.

Summary:
This patch adds support for building/testing libc++ with an ABI library that the linker would not normally find.
- `CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH` is used to specify the list of search directories.
- The ABI library is now found using `find_library` instead of assuming its along the linker's search path.
- `CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH` is passed to our LIT config as `library_paths`.
- For each path in `library_paths` the following flags are added `-L<path> -Wl,-rpath -Wl,<path>`
Some changes in existing behavior were also added:
- `target_link_libraries` is now passed the ABI library file instead of the library name. Ex `target_link_libraries(cxx "/usr/lib/libc++abi.so")` vs `target_link_libraries(cxx "c++abi")`.
- `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,<path>` is now used on OSX to link to libc++ instead of env['DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH'] if `use_system_lib=False`.

Summary:
Instead of having to update test results for different platforms it would be helpful to just supply links to buildbots that build+test libcxx.
For the FreeBSD bots Pawel Worach gave me the OK to link to them.

Okay, so this actually does more than just that. I've rearranged most of
the information on the page to try to make it more helpful and flow
better. Essentially, the differences between Mac and Linux, the various
ABI libraries, and in-tree versus out-of-tree builds were cluttering
things. To clean up, I've done the following:
* Only describe the cmake process. buildit doesn't work out of the box
on Linux, and we need to stop having duplicates for every process.
* Use libc++abi for the default instructions. This works on the major
platforms.
* Describe both in-tree and out-of-tree builds. Previously it wasn't
clear that in-tree builds were even possible for libc++.
* Separate the documentation about using libc++ from that about
building and testing libc++.

Linking against libstdc++, rather than libsupc++, is probably better
for people who need to link against clients of libstdc++. Because
libsupc++ is provided only as a static library, its globals are not
shared between the static library and the copy linked into libstdc++.
This has been found to cause at least one test failure.
This also removes a number of symbols which were multiply defined
between libstdc++ and libc++, only when linking with libstdc++.

You can now configure from the command line using:
-DLIBCXX_CXX_ABI=libsupc++
-DLIBCXX_LIBSUPCXX_INCLUDE_PATHS="path;path

There are a few tests that are listed as failing here for which I have
a patch in the works. I'll be sending those along soon. There are
others where I know what is going on but don't yet have a solution,
and I've included some notes for those. Several still need to be
investigated, mostly in localization and the regex test suite. I think
that many of these failures are due to locale implementation
variations that make the expected test results not match the actual
results. I'm not sure what the best way to make the tests accomodate
this sort of variation might be.
The failures in the unique_ptr test suite are very new and are caused
by a clang crash which I've not yet looked into.
