Pass build options directly via `COMPILE_DEFINTIONS` and
`LINK_LIBRARIES`, instead of "tunneling" them through `CMAKE_FLAGS`.
The latter method breaks when passing `Threads::Threads` as library via
`CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES`, while also being complex and fragile.
Example:
```
-- Performing Test HAVE_FSETXATTR_5
CMake Error at bld/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/CMakeLists.txt:27 (target_link_libraries):
Target "cmTC_3386e" links to:
Threads::Threads
but the target was not found. Possible reasons include:
* There is a typo in the target name.
* A find_package call is missing for an IMPORTED target.
* An ALIAS target is missing.
CMake Error at CMake/Macros.cmake:51 (try_compile):
Failed to generate test project build system.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:1684 (curl_internal_test)
```

Note: a side-effect is no longer passing C compiler flags (e.g.
`CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS`) to the _linker_. This should not be an issue,
though CMake is passing them during its built-in detections.

Closes #21176
