Add some prose to the documentation index page to guide readers to the
major manuals and guides.
Add a new "User Interaction Guide" to help the class of new user
who wishes to build a project with CMake for the first time, such as
after cloning a repo from a git repository.
Add a new "Using Dependencies Guide" to help the class of new
user who wishes to consume a SDK provided by a third party and needs a
starting point. This is a different type of user to the user who wishes
to create their own project from scratch (addressed by the
`cmake-buildsystem(7)` manual) as each will encounter needs for
information discovery in a different order.
Many users will want to use the Ninja Multi-Config generator like a
traditional Visual Studio-style multi-config generator, which doesn't
mix configurations - custom commands are built using target executables
of the same configuration the command is for. We do not want to force
these people to generate an N*N build matrix when they only need N*1,
especially if they have lots of targets. Add a new variable,
CMAKE_NINJA_CROSS_CONFIG_ENABLE, to opt-in to the cross-config build
matrix.
Reintroduces .hh header processing in AUTOMOC and AUTOUIC based on the new
policy CMP0100 setting.
Fixes: #13904 CMAKE_AUTOMOC misses headers with ".hh" extension
Add a new property flag for a target which contains a message regarding
deprecation status.
Add a warning at "Generate" time if a linked target is marked as
deprecated.
Expand ExportImport test to ensure that new property is being set and
passed correctly. Ensure that the message is shown during the
"Generate" step run of the ExportImport test.
Add a new `--trace-format=` flag, to enable the new JSON trace
output format. This new format is easier to parse by machines
than the existing format. This new format also removes the
ambiguity of the whitespace in the "old" format (e.g. is that
whitespace part of a file path, or does it seperate arguments)
Enable debug messages a new `--find-debug` command-line option or via
the `CMAKE_FIND_DEBUG_MODE` variable.
This work was started by Chris Wilson, continued by Ray Donnelly, and
then refactored by Robert Maynard to collect information into a single
message per find query.

`CMAKE_CURRENT_FUNCTION`
Can be used for diagnostic or debugging messages like the
`__PRETTY_FUNCTION__` macro of GCC.
`CMAKE_CURRENT_FUNCTION_LIST_DIR`
Eliminates the necessity of the additional "global"
variables inside a module used to access additional "resource"
files from functions defined in the module.

This makes it much easier to use a launcher for all CMake projects in an
environment rather than having to remember to pass the setting to every
CMake build.

Combine `--repeat-until-fail`, `--repeat-until-pass`, and
`--repeat-after-timeout` to create a single `--repeat <mode>:<n>`
option. Retain `--repeat-until-fail` too because that has been
available in previous releases.

In commit da5ac4bb60 (cpack: Add `CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_CONFIGURATIONS`
variable, 2019-07-10, v3.16.0-rc1~165^2) we added both the variable
and support for `cpack -C` with multiple configurations. Drop the
variable because the `package` target cannot ensure that all of the
configurations are built. Keep the command-line interface so that
it can be used manually in scripts.
Fixes: #19918
