e782811cfe execute_process: Change default ENCODING to UTF-8
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

3f5e4f1957 Help: Consolidate 3.8 release notes
Move all development release notes into a new version-specific document:

    tail -q -n +3 Help/release/dev/* > Help/release/3.8.rst
    git rm -- Help/release/dev/*

except the sample topic:

    git checkout HEAD -- Help/release/dev/0-sample-topic.rst

Reference the new document from the release notes index document.
Add a title and intro sentence to the new document by hand.
