Brad King ad3c2c0b03 Help: Normalize and consolidate standard policy advice paragraph
Every policy's documentation has a paragraph on what version of CMake
introduced it, how to set the policy, and whether CMake warns if the
policy is not set.  The wording of this paragraph has diverged across
policies over time.  Factor the paragraph out into a standard advice
document included by every policy.

Lingkai Dong c4941b7e66 ARMClang: Do not automatically add cpu/arch compile or link options
The compile options `--march=<arch>` and `--mcpu=<cpu>` and the
link option `--cpu=<cpu>` are automatically added by CMake based
on `CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR` or `CMAKE_SYSTEM_ARCH`. But this is not
sufficient, because armclang also supports enabling or disabling
features using `+<feature>`:

    -mcpu=<name>[+[no]<feature>+...]

For example:

    -mcpu=cortex-a57+nocrypto+nofp+nosimd+crc

(Reference: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/dui0774/k/Compiler-Command-line-Options/-mcpu?lang=en)

The problem is, even if a project adds a flag with features it needs,
CMake still adds flags, resulting in code that is compiled with wrong
CPU features and unable to run.

Add policy `CMP0123` to not automatically add compile or link options,
and let projects set them instead.
