The documentation of the find-commands was pointing to the
cmake variables CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH etc.
also in the section for environment variables. Now they point
to the documentation for the respective environment variables.
In commit fa45594407 (file(GET_RUNTIME_DEPENDENCIES): Preserve casing
for Windows PE binaries, 2023-03-06) we neglected to update associated
documentation.
Also call out possible exposure of an existing cache entry of the same
name, as we have for the `unset` command since commit 1a0f1a25a4 (Help:
Clarify the unset command, 2018-08-17, v3.13.0-rc1~199^2).
Issue: #24633
Convert `file` command to use new `signature` directive. Use '<HASH>'
rather than 'HASH' for relevant signature targets, as this is arguably
more correct, results in less need to specify explicit targets, but
still produces '#hash' as the HTML anchor.
Although actual textual changes to `file` are fairly minimal, large
portions of the content have been re-indented and in many cases,
re-flowed. Some tabular content in literal text blocks has also been
converted to actual tables.
Convert documentation of the `list` and `set` commands to use new
`signature` directive. Use new `cref` role in the `list` introduction so
that the subcommands there are links rather than just text. Turn
references into `string` subcommands into actual links. Reformat some
prose as definition lists.
Some servers have allow-lists for HTTP UserAgent for example.
CMake project devs would benefit from this hint about setting
authorization tokens and HTTP User Agent.
Extend commit eb35d8884b (find_package: Use PackageName_ROOT variables
as search prefixes, 2018-03-15, v3.12.0-rc1~349^2) to also check
upper-case `<PACKAGENAME>_ROOT` variables. Add policy `CMP0144` to
enable the behavior in a compatible way.
Fixes: #24403
Add CMake variable `CMAKE_ADD_CUSTOM_COMMAND_DEPENDS_EXPLICIT_ONLY` to enable
option `DEPENDS_EXPLICIT_ONLY` on all uses of `add_custom_command`.
Fixes: #17097
* enable_testing must be called to enable testing
* can only set properties on tests created in same directory
* WILL_FAIL still fails on segfault and similar
* compact wording
Add option `DEPENDS_EXPLICIT_ONLY` to `add_custom_command` to indicate
that implicit dependencies coming from users of the output are not
needed, and only consider dependencies explicitly specified in the
custom command.

Document and add explicit tests for empty string input:
`if(EXISTS "")` and `if(IS_DIRECTORY "")` are always false.
This avoids need for users to do extra checks due to
CMake non-short-circuit logic as below:
if("${p}")
if(EXISTS "${p}")
