Description

The CMake build script currently builds native Desktop libraries only. We also need to build libraries targeting mixed mode (msvcmrt*.lib for /clr) and pure mode (msvcurt*.lib for /clr:pure).

Research direction

Start by inspecting CMakeLists.txt and how the current native Desktop libraries are defined. Trace the existing build configuration for the library targets, then verify that mixed-mode /clr outputs named msvcmrt*.lib and pure-mode /clr:pure outputs named msvcurt*.lib are produced alongside the native libraries.
