TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES allows you to specify an optional "debug" or
"optimized" argument which you can use to control which form of a
library you're linking a target against (a debug or release).

There is no CMake policy I'm aware of on this.  It's pretty much up to
the users.

I'm not sure what you're asking here.

Prebuilt static libraries don't store linker directives.  CMake allows
you to manipulate the linking parameters using the LINK_FLAGS property
of SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES().
