Since commit 6baf65ec46 (ASM: Do not consider MSVC C/CXX compiler for
generic ASM, 2025-04-08) we no longer mistake `cl` for an assembler.
However, some projects unconditionally enable ``ASM``, which worked
on Windows only due to that bug. Restore compatibility with such
projects by guarding the change behind a new policy ``CMP0194``.

As a consequence, `GNUInstallDirs_get_absolute_install_dir` does not
alter the `var` argument (the relative path argument).

This updates the module documentation to be more synced with other
modules. Also, this module on the first glance doesn't do what most
people might think. Because when condition evaluates to false, internal
cache remains with the same value, and a local variable is created with
the value provided in the last argument.
- Command arguments described separately and their placeholders renamed
to more intuitive names.
- More examples added, starting with a very basic syntax usage to more
complex ones, each described in more details.
- Each example has include() added to be more clear that this is a
module command.
The `LINK_LIBRARIES` and `INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES` target properties
establish the graph of link dependencies used to propagate usage
requirements transitively. Therefore the `$<TARGET_PROPERTY:...>`
generator expression should evaluate them transitively as it does for
other transitive properties. Add policy CMP0189 for compatibility.
Fixes: #26709
Issue: #12435
CMP0115 requires that source files listed in CMake must include their
file extension, but there are cases when projects have different source
files with the same name, but one with an extension and one without.
In the current state, CMake will ignore the file without the extension
an always map it to the file with an extension.
```cmake
add_library(foo bar.c bar)
```
In the above example, the target `foo` will only recognize and depend on
`bar.c` and miss the file `bar` unless `bar` comes before `bar.c` in the
source list.
This issue also affects how custom commands emit files.
This change adds a new policy to recognize files with and without a file
extension as different files, both when building targets, and when they
are being created.
Fixes: #26058
When doing successive matches, track the input start and current search
start positions separately to prevent the `^` anchor from matching in
the middle of the string. Add policy CMP0186 to provide compatibility.
Issue: #26629Fixes: #16899
Indenting a list relative to the previous paragraph creates
a blockquote. Combined with the natural list indent it results
in an overly large left margin.
Covers almost all blocks containing actual code, except:
* Parsed-literal blocks can't be highlighted, including many command
summaries and substitution-heavy docs like find_... commands.
This is a Sphinx limitation.
* Code with errors, like CMP0049, DEPLOYMENT_ADDITIONAL_FILES,
DEPLOYMENT_REMOTE_DIRECTORY, @PACKAGE_INIT@ substitution in the
tutorial, bracket arguments/comments in cmake-language.7 and
cmake-developer.7.
* FindQt4 module, which needs reformatting.
Replace our hard-coded default for `/RTC1` with a first-class
abstraction to select runtime checks from an enumeration of logical
names. Add a `MSVC_RUNTIME_CHECKS` target property and corresponding
`CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_CHECKS` variable.
Removing the old default flag requires a policy because existing
projects may rely on string processing to edit them and choose
runtime checks under the old behavior. Add policy CMP0184 to
provide compatibility.
