bd12b97d05 cmScanDepFormat: Drop unused "outputs", "inputs", and "depends" fields
These fields are specified by our `P1689r3` paper, but are not actually
needed.  The dependencies of the scanning results themselves can be
captured via normal depfile logic.  Avoid saving this possibly-large
information in the scanning results.  It is not needed by later steps.

4b23359117 ninja: Add experimental infrastructure for C++20 module dependency scanning
Optionally enable this infrastructure through an undocumented
`CMAKE_EXPERIMENTAL_CXX_MODULE_DYNDEP` variable.  Currently this is
experimental and intended for use by compiler writers to implement their
scanning tools.  Warn as such when the feature is activated.  Later when
compilers provide the needed scanning tools we can enable this variable
from our corresponding compiler information modules.  It is never meant
to be set by project code.

When enabled, generate a build graph similar to what we use for Fortran
module dependencies.  There are some differences needed because we can
scan dependencies without explicit preprocessing, and can directly
compile the original source afterward.

d231d92289 Help/dev: Add a CMake Experimental Features Guide
Initialize it with placeholder content.  This document will serve to
contain documentation for experimental features that are under
development and not yet included in official documentation.
