Modify library install destinations to install .dll's to the correct
location (`bin`, not `lib`), and to install other artifacts to the
correct platform-dependent location by using GNUInstallDirs. This is
required for some distributions (e.g. Fedora) and will fix an issue that
otherwise requires those distributions to patch the upstream sources.
Also, add options to suppress installation, which may be useful for
projects that embed Google Test.
Since Google Test is trying to support archaic versions of CMake, a
brain-dead fallback (which requires that the user set either LIB_SUFFIX
or CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR themselves) is included for versions that
predate GNUInstallDirs.
Fixes#1161.

MSVC has an optional warning which flags when 32-bit pointers get cast
into a 64-bit value. This is a little overaggressive I think, but to
ease compiling in projects with aggressive warnings, fix this by just
casting to const void * directly. Modern GCCs seem to compile it just
fine.
The rest of the (covered) codebase is already integer overflow clean.
This is a cherry-pick of an internal change.
TESTED=gtest_shuffle_test goes from fail to pass with -fsanitize=integer
The documentation of former versions is available in the history (e.g.
by checking out the appropriate git tags), so there is no need to keep
them in parallel to the current documentation.
Use `EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL` in `add_subdirectory` to prevent `make install` from including lots of headers from gtest/gmock.
```
add_subdirectory(${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/googletest-src
${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/googletest-build
EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL)
```
Add a new RAII MemoryIsNotDeallocated class that excludes memory allocations from Microsoft’s debug CRT leak detection report.
We use this RAII class to silence 2 false positive leaks that are caused by memory allocations that are intentionally never deallocated.
*Background*
The MS debug CRT has a lightweight memory leak detection mechanism that can only detect if a memory allocation is missing a matching deallocation.
Consequently, it will report a false positive leak for memory that’s intentionally never deallocated. For example, memory that’s reachable for the entire lifetime of a app.
Note the MS debug CRT is always tracking memory allocations but the final memory leak report is disabled by default. As you can’t avoid paying for its cost, you may as well use it.
The memory leak report can be enabled by calling the following function
#ifdef _MSC_VER
_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CRTDBG_REPORT_FLAG) | _CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF);
#endif // _MSC_VER
anywhere before exiting main.
For example, the following are the false positive leaks reported before this change;
Detected memory leaks!

As you can see from above it’s not easy to identify the above are false positives. Consequently, if false positive leaks are not fixed or silenced, then it becomes impractical to identify real memory leaks.
