Since commit 83ddc4d289 (VS: Do not select a Windows SDK too high for
current VS version, 2017-08-07, v3.13.0-rc1~72^2~2) we enforce a maximum
SDK version for the VS 2015 generator. The blog post linked in the
original commit is no longer available, but it can be seen here:

In particular, it states:
> VS 2015 Users: The Windows 10 SDK (15063, 16299, 17134, 17763)
> is officially only supported for VS 2017.
However, in some circumstances a higher version can be used.
Add a `CMAKE_VS_WINDOWS_TARGET_PLATFORM_VERSION_MAXIMUM` to override the
generator's default maximum SDK version.
Fixes: #20633
When building Qt itself, the moc and uic executables are spcecified
via a generator expression of the form $<TARGET_FILE:Qt6::moc>,
which ends populating Moc's and Uic's 'Executable' field but not the
ExecutableTarget and ExecutableTargetName fields.
In such a scenario, the code in
cmQtAutoGenInitializer::InitAutogenTarget fails to add a dependency
on moc (or uic), because ExecutableTarget is null. First try to add
a dependency on the ExecutableTarget if it's not empty, otherwise try
to add a dependency on the path specified in the 'Executable' field.
Issue: #21118
Previously we would synthesize <TARGET_NAME>-NOTFOUND as the location. This
would then end up on the link line and cause build failures.
Policy CMP0110 is added to control this behaviour.
Fixes#19080, #19943.
In commit 82be694c7a (file(GENERATE): Add policy CMP0070 to define
relative path behavior, 2017-06-08, v3.10.0-rc1~534^2), one path
calculation was forgotten. Because of this the path name according to
the old behavior was added to the list of CMake generated files.
Fixes: #21038
Add an `OPTIMIZE_DEPENDENCIES` target property and supporting
`CMAKE_OPTIMIZE_DEPENDENCIES` variable to optionally enable pruning and
flattening of outgoing dependencies from static libraries. Since they
do not actually link, they only depend on side effects of their
dependencies. Therefore we can drop dependencies that contribute no
side effects.
Restore the change from commit f84af8e270 (add_test: Allow special
characters in test name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2) that had to be
reverted by commit f84af8e270 (add_test: Allow special characters in
test name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2) for compatibility.
Add policy CMP0110 to make the change in a compatible way.
Also, support even more characters than before by generating the
test scripts using bracket arguments around the test names.
Fixes: #19391
