If backslashes are used for CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET, then ctest
processing will complain about COMP0010.
For example:
Syntax error in cmake code at
C:/Users/XXX/test_bld/Tests/CTestTestfile.cmake:253
when parsing string
C:\Users\XXX\bin_tools\XXX
Invalid escape sequence \U
Policy CMP0010 is not set: Bad variable reference syntax is an error. Run
"cmake --help-policy CMP0010" for policy details. Use the cmake_policy
command to set the policy and suppress this warning.
Selection of a BSP only needs to be performed if not set by user.
Remove all the logic for printing error and status messages about BSP
selection. These messages also breaks CMake tests.
NOTE: If BSP selection fails then the compiler checks will result in
a build error. The build error will report that the BSP does not exist.

This was intended to be part of the initial MR (!6177), but accidentally went
missing when debugging nightly failures on less common systems. Noticed during
!6711 review as the comment about this behaviour didn't match the code.
Documentation for CMP0128 is updated to remove a false case and note the two
cases related to this.
Fixes#22224.

Add link flags during the "device compile" step.
Enabled the relevant tests. The disable reasons regarding separable compilation
were outdated and the actual failure case was device link flags support.
CMake 3.18 added the first support for any compiler for 17 and 20,
but those were recognized as valid values in earlier CMake versions
even though there was no compiler that supported them. Make this
distinction clear to avoid creating the impression that these standards
could be usefully used before CMake 3.18.
While 98 is recognized as a valid value, it also just gets treated as 03
internally. Document this behavior as well.

Add fields to the VS generator to select a target framework.
Migrate the existing default for VS 12 .NET CF for Windows CE.
Report the values in `CMAKE_VS_*` variables and use them for
the CSharp compiler id project too.

This CPack generator was never documented, and has been deprecated since
commit 2ed00e8ef8 (CPack: Deprecate OSXX11 generator, 2020-01-31,
v3.17.0-rc1~45^2).

With some of the content expanded, reorder a few paragraphs
and tweak some of the wording to improve the flow.

This generator expression does not report the locations of `.dll`
files on imported targets with the `UNKNWON` type, since their
`IMPORTED_LOCATION` refers to the import library and not the DLL.
Fixes: #22845
Explain that this represents the compiler's default and mustn't be modified
by the user. Clarify when it's used as the default.
Additionally:
* Add a reference to it in cmake-compile-features in text explaining the
feature.
* Add explanations for the default initialization by
`CMAKE_<LANG>_EXTENSIONS_DEFAULT` to all `<LANG>_EXTENSIONS` pages and
references to CMP0128.
* Slightly reduce the wordiness of the default initialization explanations by
removing an unnecessary "it is".
Fixes#22828.
Previously the `CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` value was used only to filter
the instances reported by the Visual Studio Installer tool. If the
specified install location is not known to the VS Installer, but the
user provided a `version=` field, check for the installation directly
on disk.
Fixes: #21639, #22197
Support for `CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` was added in CMake 3.11, but the
possibility was mentioned in a comment in older versions, so the wrong
versionadded value was used in commit c43e845d09 (Help: Add `..
versionadded` directives to generator docs, 2020-11-11,
v3.20.0-rc1~476^2).
