CMake versions 3.20 and below always add compiler and linker flags
based on `CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR`, for example `--cpu=Cortex-M33`.
This sometimes overrides flags we set in tools/cmake/cores/*.cmake
and results in link failure or unbootable binaries. To workaround
this, we added more linker flags to "counter" what CMake automatically
adds.
From CMake 3.21 onwards, CMake by default does not add flags to
armclang anymore, and it fully relies on projects to set all flags.
In this case we do not need to set `CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR` or use
workarounds anymore. We still turn on workarounds when an older
version of CMake (3.19 and 3.20) is used, but in the future we might
require users to have at least CMake 3.21.
Some armasm flags are passed to the ASM whilst we actually use armclang to invoke it. This causes build failures as armclang is not compatible with armasm flags.
This commit passes the same flags to all tools in the chain.
The new function (mbed_set_cpu_core_definitions()) should always be
called as it has defintions needed by Mbed OS to work with that
particular MCU core.
mbed_set_cpu_core_options() should only be called if a third-party
toolchain file has not been used as it has compile options that can
cause conflicts.
