CMake is unable to generate a correct Xcode project when trying to link libraries with only object libraries as its input. As our new build infrastructure makes heavy use of object libraries now, this affects our libgit2 library target, as well, leading to linking errors. Fix the issue by adding a dummy file to the libgit2 objects. As we always have the "features.h" header ready which contains defines only, we can simply link it into the resulting library without any effect whatsoever. This fixes building with Xcode.

Thanks to @tiennou. This should fix #4352.
