[Feature] Show imported targets and their properties in the debugger #4476

Request Overview

Imported targets don't show up in the debugger, so there's no way to inspect their properties except by modifying the CMake script to add get_target_property and message calls.

I tried to do a quick background check to see whether CMake exposes this information to debuggers, and this plugin doesn't consume it, or whether CMake doesn't expose it and I need to redo this feature request on Kitware's tracker, but I didn't find anything definitive, so sorry if this is the wrong tracker.
