Summary:                    In trace mode, evaluated 'elseif'/'else' commands
are not printed
Description: 
In trace mode ('--trace'), only the opening 'if' command of a conditional block
is printed. If the opening 'if' command evaluates False, any subsequent
'elseif'/'else' statements will be evaluated by CMake ('else' is a trivial
evaluation), but not printed.

Determining which 'elseif'/'else' commands were evaluated can still be done
implicitly, by examining which set of consequent commands are evaluated.
However, actually printing which 'elseif'/'else' commands are evaluated would
make trace mode more usable and consistent (since 'if' evaluation is printed).

Steps to Reproduce: 
For "test.cmake":
  IF(0)
    COMMAND1()
  ELSEIF(0)
    COMMAND2()
  ELSEIF(1)
    COMMAND3()
  ELSE()
    COMMAND4()
  ENDIF()

Current output in trace mode ("cmake --trace -P test.cmake"):
  test.cmake(1):  IF(0 )
  test.cmake(6):  COMMAND3( )

Preferred output would be:
  test.cmake(1):  IF(0 )
  test.cmake(3):  ELSEIF(0 )
  test.cmake(5):  ELSEIF(1 )
  test.cmake(6):  COMMAND3( )
