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).
Adds the following CPackIFW variables:
- CPACK_IFW_ARCHIVE_FORMAT
- CPACK_IFW_ARCHIVE_COMPRESSION
These variables control mirror the --archive-format and --compression
options of the QtIFW binarycreator and repogen tools.
Fixes: #22803

This makes `versionadded` and `versionchanged` directives show up in
`cmake --help-*` output instead of disappearing (and potentially making
empty sections).
Fixes: #22808

Due to MCST LCC compiler identification is now changed to LCC,
there should be a way for old projects to still identify it as GNU,
as it was before.
This commits adds the policy:
CMP0129: Compiler id for MCST LCC compilers is now LCC, not GNU.
This policy controls such a behavior.
OLD behaivior is to treat LCC as GNU, NEW is to treat is as LCC.
In commit c9568de52c (install: Add CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE variable
(#13761), 2014-06-24, v3.1.0-rc1~370^2~1) we incorrectly documented
that `CMAKE_INSTALL_MESSAGE` controls the status message for
`file(INSTALL)`. Revert that.
Fixes: #17162
The target properties `CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION` and `CUDA_PTX_COMPILATION`
now aren't mutually exclusive and can now be used together on the same
target.
