[CMake] WebKitLegacy should not link libPAL.a
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322622
rdar://185923994
Reviewed by Elliott Williams.
WebCore force-loads libPAL.a and re-exports it, so listing the static PAL
target in WebKitLegacy_PRIVATE_LIBRARIES gave WebKitLegacy.framework a
second copy of every PAL object it referenced thus duplicating PAL's state,
not just its code, including soft-link class singletons and isoheap
s_heapRef/s_heapSpec pairs.
WebKitLegacy_FRAMEWORKS already lists PAL, which resolves to WebCore, and
WebKit.framework relies on the same thing. Headers are unaffected:
WebKitLegacy_PRIVATE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES lists PAL_FRAMEWORK_HEADERS_DIR.
Xcode's WebKitLegacy.xcconfig never linked libPAL.a either.
Matches Xcode behavior, and saves ~200KB of binary size.
