Since commit 84db8506ff (Deprecate compatibility with CMake versions older
than 3.10, 2024-10-03, v3.31.0-rc1~23^2) the `cmake_minimum_required` and
`cmake_policy` commands warn if the project does not enable policies as
of 3.10 or higher. Clarify the advice given in the warning message about
how to update the version specification, particularly without actually
requiring a newer minimum version of CMake.
Issue a deprecation warning on calls to `cmake_minimum_required` or
`cmake_policy` that set policies based on versions older than 3.10.
Note that the effective policy version includes `...<max>` treatment.
Update the check from commit 3a4791548d (Deprecate compatibility with
CMake versions older than 3.5, 2023-02-09, v3.27.0-rc1~508^2).
Issue a deprecation warning on calls to `cmake_minimum_required` or
`cmake_policy` that set policies based on versions older than 3.5.
Note that the effective policy version includes `...<max>` treatment.
Update the check from commit 5845c218d7 (Deprecate compatibility with
CMake versions older than 2.8.12, 2020-06-12, v3.19.0-rc1~629^2).
For policy-specific tests, use the version before the policy was
introduced. Otherwise, use 3.5 where possible.
Also, remove `cmake_minimum_required()` and `project()` calls from
individual cases where they are handled by `CMakeLists.txt`.
Optionally verify that items in `LINK_LIBRARIES` and
`INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES` that can be target names are actually target
names. Add a `LINK_LIBRARIES_ONLY_TARGETS` target property and
corresponding `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARIES_ONLY_TARGETS` variable to enable
this new check.
