Clean up test_support_lib and GTest dependencies slightly. test_support_lib depends on GTest and should be marked as such. Historically it was a bit fuzzy, but now it's unambiguous. With that cleaned up, we can remove one of the global include_directories calls and rely on CMake's INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES machinery. (CMake's documentation and "modern CMake" prefers setting include directories on the target and letting them flow up the dependency tree, rather than configuring it globally across the project.)

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
