Description
Summary
Treat Enzyme like a true cmake dependency
Rationale
CMake code for linking with Enzyme is complicated (thus error-prone) and duplicated across all dependent libraries. It would be better to define the build requirements in one place and let dependent libraries just use the target.
Description
- Update
FindEnzyme.cmaketo be a true "find module" - Update link code for library targets to use enzyme target instead of itemizing build requirements

Research direction
Start by reading FindEnzyme.cmake and locating the duplicated Enzyme linking code for the library targets. Compare the current build requirements with the desired Enzyme target usage. The work is done when FindEnzyme.cmake provides a reusable dependency target and dependent libraries link through that target without repeating the requirements.
