UTF-8 is the proper naming according to the UTF-8 RFC and is also the
name used for a similar keyword in the file() command. This commit
brings (backward compatible) consistency to the keyword names and allows
the standard UTF-8 name to be used with execute_process(). The old UTF8
keyword is still supported.
Some are user facing.

Now, several `INTERFACE_*` properties can be set on `IMPORTED` targets,
not only via `set_property` and `set_target_properties` but also via
`target_compile_definitions`, `target_compile_features`,
`target_compile_options`, `target_include_directories`, `target_sources`
and `target_link_libraries`.

4e7f6738 Defer check for sources within a target until generation.

The `add_library` and `add_executable` commands can now be called with
no source-files and won't generate a warning or error message, as long
as source-files will be added later via the `target_sources` command.
If during the generation step still no sources are associated with
targets created by such calls a useful error message will be generated
and generation fails.
Targets of type `INTERFACE_LIBRARY`, `UTILITY` or `GLOBAL_TARGET` are
excluded from this check because we do not need sources for these target
types during generation.

Disable the feature added by commit v3.9.0-rc1~71^2~2 (find_*: Add a new
PackageRoot search path group, 2017-05-03) and remove documentation
added by commit v3.9.0-rc1~71^2 (find_*: Add docs for PackageRoot search
path group, 2017-05-03). Unfortunately the name `<pkg>_ROOT` may
already be set by projects for their own incompatible purposes. Disable
the behavior change for now to fix the regression for CMake 3.9. We can
restore it later with a policy.
In order to keep the implementation and tests working, add an
undocumented variable we can use in the tests to enable the behavior
before the policy is introduced.
Fixes: #17144
When using `file(WRITE)`, parent directories are also created. Documentation
has been updated to explain this behavior.
Co-Author: Craig Scott <craig.scott@crascit.com>
It has been sorted since commit v3.6.0-rc1~54^2 (file: Sort GLOB results
to make it deterministic, 2016-05-14). That commit left the order
unspecified in the documentation, but has been stable long enough to
document now.
Optional spaces and/or tabs are now understood between the '#' character
and the 'cmakedefine'/'cmakedefine01' words. This indentation is
preserved in the output lines.
Fixes: #13037
Previously `file(GENERATE)` did not define any behavior for relative
paths given to the `OUTPUT` or `INPUT` arguments. Define behavior
consistent with CMake conventions and add a policy to provide
compatibility for projects that relied on the old accidental behavior.

Allow CTest script writers to specify additional HTTP headers to be sent
to CDash during submission.
The motivating case for this feature is a corresponding change in CDash.
This will allow projects to refuse submissions from any site not bearing
a valid authentication token.
