Missing link arguments from a CMake system dependency

[mitchgrout]

(More details here: slint-ui/slint#4642)

I've got a system-installed dependency, slint, which provides a set of .cmake files to define the library. I'm able to detect this dependency with dependency('slint'), however practically all of the arguments defined in the .cmake file appear to be missing. Introspecting, I have this metadata associated with the dependency:

{
  "name": "slint",
  "type": "cmake",
  "version": "1.4.1",
  "compile_args": [
    "/bigobj",
    "-I<path/to/slint>/include/slint"
  ],
  "link_args": [],
  "include_directories": [],
  "sources": [],
  "extra_files": [],
  "dependencies": [],
  "depends": [],
  "meson_variables": [
    "slint"
  ]
}

I'm thinking this could be a problem with the project's .cmake files themselves; are there any suggestions for debugging this? I can supply the .cmake files on request.

Library being declared in .cmake is setting the path to the target .dll via IMPORTED_LOCATION_* properties; adding the .dll path via INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES (or equivalently the target_link_libraries() method) allows meson to pick it up. Unsure if meson would benefit from also reading the IMPORTED_LOCATION_* fields to determine link information?
