Avoid linking to uninstalled TARGET_OBJECTS - #5157

Conversation
As reported in ornladios#5105, the KWSys third-party module was installing a target with files in the `INTERFACE_SOURCES` property that were not installed. Even though this target was never used, CMake was failing simply because the target with a bad property existed. This change modifies how the KWSys module is used. Rather than split objects from the interface, the module creates a single `adios2sys` target and avoids adding target objects. Fixes ornladios#5105

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Assuming CI is happy, yes, this looks like the resolution.
