Thanks.

I've pushed new change that adds plain C language support.

Nope. But let's say I'll add such setting:
target_precompiled_header(target SOURCES <list of sources>)
Then instead of applying precompiled header to all target sources, it will
apply just for these specified here. However this may generate suboptimal
Makefiles/Ninja files since for many (thousands of) files, every file will have
separate flags specified which is IMHO pretty bad.
It would be better to separate guid non-PCH sources into separate object only
library via:
add_library(target_guid_files OBJECT sources)
And then add these output files to main target using PCH via
$<TARGET_OBJECTS:target_guid_files>

Yes! But unfortunately this may NOT work for MSVC. Since this implies we would
need to share PDB. But this is somehow Microsoft specific stuff.
