2a2829cc75 Help: Add new section for CPack generators
The documentation for CPack generators previously lived in their
respective internal CMake modules. This setup was misleading,
because it implied that you should include the modules in your own
code, which is not the case. Moving the documentation into a
separate section does a better job of hiding the internal modules,
which are just an implementation detail. The generator documentation
has also been modified to remove any references to the module name.

The CPackIFW module is a special exception: since it has user-facing
macros, the documentation for these macros has been kept in the module
page, while all other documentation related to the IFW generator has
been moved into the new section.

To make it easier to find the new documentation, the old help pages
for the CPack*.cmake modules have not been deleted, but have been
replaced with a link to their respective help page in the new
documentation section.

f739752ad6 CPack: Add NuGet support
Create a CPack generator that uses `nuget.exe` to create packages:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/what-is-nuget

NuGet packages could be easily produced from a `*.nuspec` file (running
`nuget pack` in the directory w/ the spec file).  The spec filename does
not affect the result `*.nupkg` name -- only `id` and `version` elements
of the spec are used (by NuGet).

Some implementation details:

* Minimize C++ code -- use CMake script do to the job. It just let the
  base class (`cmCPackGenerator`) to preinstall everything to a temp
  directory, render the spec file and run `nuget pack` in it, harvesting
  `*.nupkg` files...;

* Ignore package name (and use default paths) prepared by the base class
  (only `CPACK_TEMPORARY_DIRECTORY` is important) -- final package
  filename is a responsibility of NuGet, so after generation just scan the
  temp directory for the result `*.nupkg` file(s) and update
  `packageFileNames` data-member of the generator;

* The generator supports _all-in-one_ (default), _one-group-per-package_
  and _one-component-per-package_ modes.
