Add a variable to indicate the latest standard known to be supported for
each language:
* `CMAKE_C_STANDARD_LATEST`
* `CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_LATEST`
* `CMAKE_CUDA_STANDARD_LATEST`
* `CMAKE_HIP_STANDARD_LATEST`
* `CMAKE_OBJC_STANDARD_LATEST`
* `CMAKE_OBJCXX_STANDARD_LATEST`
These variables, more generally referred to as
`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LATEST`, are assigned an integer value which
represents the minimum between the latest version of the associated
language standard supported by the current compiler and the latest
version supported by CMake.
Add documentation for these variables in a new page called
`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LATEST` was added under the "Variables for
Languages" section of the `cmake-variables(7)` page.
Update each compiler-specific CMake script under
`${CMAKE_ROOT}\Modules\Compiler` to manually define the relevant
`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LATEST` variable as necessary. This will
require updating and maintaining as newer compiler versions become
recognized by CMake.
Closes: #25717
- The compile option variable has to be defined as list.
- The compiler works in relaxed ANSI mode by default.
Strict ANSI has to be explicitly set additionally to the
language standard.
If e.g. libc.a is passed before any objects the linker raises the follwing
warning: cannot resolve archive libc.a to a compatible library, as no
input files have been encountered
In the end the library is skipped and missing symbols occur.

Teach the Makefile and Ninja generators to substitute for an <INCLUDES>
placeholder instead of putting -I in <FLAGS>. Update our values for
CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILE_OBJECT,
CMAKE_<LANG>_CREATE_ASSEMBLY_SOURCE, and
CMAKE_<LANG>_CREATE_PREPROCESSED_SOURCE
to place <INCLUDES> just before <FLAGS>.
