build/test: skip empty TEST_TAG, TEST_FILTER

2018-06-16T00:12:35+00:00

- Empty "--tags=", "--filter=" prevents TEST_FILE from running.
- Fix another bug: TEST_FILTER overwrote TEST_TAG.

cmake/FindLibIntl.cmake: handle passive case explicitly

2018-06-05T22:58:57+00:00

If check_c_source_compiles() succeeded (HAVE_WORKING_LIBINTL is set)
then the result of find_xxx() doesn't matter. This happens on systems
(linux+glibc) where libintl is available passively.

This allows `find_package(LibIntl REQUIRED)` to work and will still
correctly fail (REQUIRED) on systems lacking libintl.

cmake/LuaHelpers.cmake: check_lua_module: use 'lua -l'

2018-02-22T00:22:26+00:00

It only shortens the traceback a bit for when a module is not found
though, only removing the "(command line):1: in main chunk" (with
lua5.2).

cmake/LuaHelpers.cmake: check_lua_module: display errors

2018-02-22T00:22:19+00:00

This helps to figure out what the problem is, e.g. in my case I have
lua51-mpack installed to be used with luajit, but it is broken (missing
libmpack).

With this patch you get:

    -- [/usr/bin/lua] The 'mpack' lua package is required for building Neovim
    CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:459 (message):
      A suitable Lua interpreter was not found.

While this makes it more verbose for the expected error case ("module
'mpack' not found"), the behavior before this patch hides too much.
This is the old output:

    -- Checking Lua interpreter /usr/bin/luajit
    -- [/usr/bin/luajit] The 'mpack' lua package is required for building Neovim
    -- Checking Lua interpreter /usr/bin/lua5.1
    -- [/usr/bin/lua5.1] The 'mpack' lua package is required for building Neovim
    -- Checking Lua interpreter /usr/bin/lua5.2
    -- [/usr/bin/lua5.2] The 'mpack' lua package is required for building Neovim

    -- [/usr/bin/lua] The 'mpack' lua package is required for building Neovim
    CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:459 (message):
      A suitable Lua interpreter was not found.

This is for when the whole configuration runs (i.e. after `make
distclean`), afterwards only one Lua interpreter gets checked only.
