Torsten Tejlmand RasmussenandGitHub 32257403b0 [cmake] using cmake -E echo instead of shell echo command (#6175)
The echo command of the host system may have slight variations between
shell built-in echo and the echo command provided by the OS.

Especially the Windows OS echo command is different from practical any
other echo command.

This means that the currently used `COMMAND echo -e "<text>"` does not
work universally.

This commit introduces `etc/cmake/print.cmake` which allow to print a
CMake list where each item is printed on a new line, to get the desired
behavior on the `print-ot-config` target.

Using `cmake -E echo <text>` ensures identical behaviour across
different systems.

# Purpose of this CMake script is to support printing of properties fetched
# using a generator expression.
#
# Depending on the generator in use, Ninja, Makefile, other, it is not possible
# to always ensure proper new line on all platforms when calling echo.
# The print.cmake handles this issue by taking a CMake list and prints each item
# in the list on a new line.
#
# This script can be invoked as: `cmake -DLIST="itemA;itemB;..." -P print.cmake`
