Description:
ADD_VERSION_INFO cmake/mysql_version.cmake fails if LINK_FLAGS are modified. Basically it seems that APPEND in 

SET_PROPERTY(TARGET ${target} APPEND PROPERTY LINK_FLAGS
        "\"${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/versioninfo_dll.res\"")

is not working properly.

How to repeat:
e.g. modify LINK_FLAGS in libmysql/CMakeLists.txt

      Bug#58074: ADD_VERSION_INFO cmake/mysql_version.cmake fails if LINK_FLAGS are modified
      
      Backport version info handling  (Windows-specific) from next-mr. 
      Instead of adding ".res" object as linker flag, add  resource file (.rc) file to the source list.
      This is more obvious and less error prone method.

Bernd, I took the handling from next-mr (using source file version_info_xxx.rc rather then precompiled object version_info_xxx.res). On a reason I do not remember  (likely  an oversight), it was not in 5.5, even if it was in next-mr since April or so.

During configuration, ADD_VERSION_INFO in cmake/mysql_version.cmake
failed if LINK_FLAGS was modified.
