Windows is heading toward making UTF-8 the preferred MBCS. As CMake's
internal encoding, `UTF-8` is effectively equivalent to `NONE`, which
was CMake's behavior prior to 3.15's accidental change to `AUTO`.
Behavior of `ENCODING UTF-8` is independent of CMake's internal
encoding, making it in principle a better default than `NONE`.
Add policy CMP0176 for compatibility and to document the default's
history.
Fixes: #26262
In build statements we use a single `DEP_FILE = ...` binding that is
shared between `depfile = $DEP_FILE` and `command = ... $DEP_FILE ...`
bindings in the corresponding rule. In cases that the command's shell
argument needs quoting, add a separate `depfile = ...` binding to the
build statement to express the depfile path without quoting. Otherwise
`ninja` tries to open a file path that contains literal quotes.
Fixes: #26287
Add a new CMP0175 policy to preserve backward compatibility
for projects that were using unsupported keywords or arguments.

On Windows and Wine, both the COM interface and `vswhere` might not be
available. `CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE` is still supposed to work since
commit 195d47e213 (VS: Allow CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE to specify
portable instance, 2021-10-21, v3.23.0-rc1~452^2).
Issue: #21639
In commit 3d52d70b84 (export: Add initial CPS support, 2024-07-26) we
added a static definition of a `constexpr` member to help older
AppleClang and SunPro linkers. This is deprecated by C++17 and Clang
now warns about it, so preserving the approach would require complex
conditions. There is no significant benefit to `constexpr` here, so use
a traditional file-scoped definition instead.

Detect Windows Kernel-Mode Driver include directories and library search
paths from the WDK command-line environment. Require toolchain files to
specify the KMDF target version via a new variable.
Since this changes the behavior of the WindowsKernelModeDriver
experimental feature, update its UUID.
Since commit 0b552eb877 (MSVC: Embed manifests directly for
non-incremental vs_link_exe links, 2023-02-20, v3.27.0-rc1~438^2) we use
`/MANIFEST:EMBED`, but that is not supported by older MSVC linkers.
Restore use of the standalone manifest tool.
Update `Tests/MSManifest` to recognize `dpiAwareness` in the manifest
content as written by MSVC v100 tooling.
Fixes: #26179
