@brief Detect library type of a library

Sometimes it needs to be known whether a library is shared or static on a
system in order to change the usage requirements of an imported target
representing that library. This commonly occurs between static and shared
builds that share a set of installed headers. This function returns one of
`SHARED`, `STATIC`, or `UNKNOWN` into the variable passed as the first
argument.

@brief Detect whether an imported target is shared or not

This is intended for use with modules using
@ref vtk_module_third_party_external to detect whether that module is shared or
not. Generally, this should be replaced with the `Find` module providing this
information and modifying the usage requirements as necessary instead, but it
is not always possible.

~~~
vtk_detect_library_shared(<name> <target>)
~~~

Sets `<name>_is_shared` in the caller's scope if `<target>` is a shared
library. If it is an `UNKNOWN_LIBRARY`, a cache variable is exposed to allow
the user to provide the information if it ends up breaking something.
