Offer the capability, through variable `CMAKE_LINKER_TYPE`, as well as
the target property `LINKER_TYPE` to specify which linker must be used.
The implementation of this capability is specified by variables specific
to the language and linker type: `CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_<TYPE>`.
Some definitions are provided as part of `CMake`.
For example, to select the `LLVM` linker rather than the standard one,
the type `LLD` should be specified through the variable `CMAKE_LINKER_TYPE`.
And, on `Apple`, `Linux` and some environments on `Windows`, the variable
`CMAKE_<LANG>_USING_LINKER_LLD` has value `-fuse-ld=lld`. And for `Windows`
environments based on `MSVC`, where the linker is used directly, the tool
`lld-link.exe` will be used rather than `link.exe`.

Now that scanning support is no longer experimental, the logic for
whether or not to scan C++ 20 sources is now important because all
projects are now exposted to the logic. Make the scanning rules explicit
in the documentation and rework the queries to localize all of the
associated logic.
A policy to handle the ultimate fallback logic will be implemented in a
following commit.
Improve the documentation from commit 46896d98bb (foreach(): loop
variables are only available in the loop scope, 2021-04-25,
v3.21.0-rc1~245^2) to follow policy documentation convention.

Since refactoring in commit 0a5aeaf302 (cmCTestRunTest: Consolidate test
timeout selection logic, 2023-05-04, v3.27.0-rc1~120^2) we accidentally
truncate `--timeout` values to ctest's default `TimeOut`. Fix the
logic to prefer the flag whenever the `TIMEOUT` property is not set.
In combination with the prior refactoring, this also fixes a bug that
caused `--timeout` values of 10000000 seconds or more to be ignored.
