5d2ceaada8 CPack/NSIS: Add support for unquoted (legacy) uninstaller strings
b795c96727 CPack/NSIS: Fix uninstall command when run from installer
Acked-by: Kitware Robot <kwrobot@kitware.com>

The quoting introduced by commit eb3b3bacdc (CPack/NSIS: Fix uninstall
on Windows using "Apps & Features", 2021-09-13, v3.22.0-rc1~136^2)
created two errors in the uninstaller call: double quoting of the
uninstaller executable, and quotes added to the `_?=` argument which
does not support them. Simplify the command.
Revert commit f3ad061858 (Add usage requirements to update direct link
dependencies, 2022-01-12, v3.23.0-rc1~44^2) and the property storage
updates in its predecessor commit 193a999cd5 (cmTarget: Add
INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES_DIRECT{,_EXCLUDE} backtrace storage,
2022-01-06, v3.23.0-rc1~44^2~1) from the 3.23 release branch.
After initial experience using the feature in practice, additional
design considerations have been raised for discussion in the original
issue. To avoid rushing this for the 3.23 series, we've decided to
revert the feature for now so it can be revised for a future release.
Issue: #22496
There's no benefit to storing the CPACK_PRODUCTBUILD_DOMAINS
prefix in a variable and appending to it in the C++ code. It has the
disadvantage of making it harder to find usages of the variables with
a suffix appended to that string. Expand out the strings at the places
they are used so that they are easier to spot.
The BRIEF_DOCS and FULL_DOCS are remnants from before the
Sphinx-based documentation when CMake's internal structures
for defining properties included fields for their documentation.
They are no longer mandatory for define_property() and haven't
been in practical use for some time. The main use of the command
has evolved to now be more about how to initialize and inherit
properties, so update the docs to reflect that change in focus.
Issue: #20698
INITIALIZE_FROM_VARIABLE is new in CMake 3.23, but the
versionadded note was missing in the original commit. The docs
also failed to mention that the new option only applies to target
properties.
Amends fce24e4f10 (define_property(): Add INITIALIZE_FROM_VARIABLE
argument, 2022-01-13)
Revise the spec added by commit ff929badb3 (Utilities/Release: Add
docker specs to build and test Windows binaries, 2020-05-05,
v3.18.0-rc1~203^2~1) to add a `source` stage that stops just after
copying the source tree into the image. This provides more granular
control to driving scripts.
Although passing multiple source paths was never documented, it was not
diagnosed by CMake 3.22 and below. In CMake 3.23 we now diagnose extra
paths and warn. Document this change and add a release note.
Issue: #23334
* add more possible directories for include file search
* enhance version detection from library and include files
* search for file pypy_decl.h when PyPy.h is not defined
