Raul Tambre e9976c8827 Help: Better explain CMAKE_<LANG>_EXTENSIONS_DEFAULT
Explain that this represents the compiler's default and mustn't be modified
by the user. Clarify when it's used as the default.

Additionally:
* Add a reference to it in cmake-compile-features in text explaining the
  feature.
* Add explanations for the default initialization by
  `CMAKE_<LANG>_EXTENSIONS_DEFAULT` to all `<LANG>_EXTENSIONS` pages and
  references to CMP0128.
* Slightly reduce the wordiness of the default initialization explanations by
  removing an unnecessary "it is".

Fixes #22828.

* :variable:`CMAKE_CUDA_EXTENSIONS`
* :variable:`CMAKE_HIP_EXTENSIONS`
* :variable:`CMAKE_OBJC_EXTENSIONS`
* :variable:`CMAKE_OBJCXX_EXTENSIONS`
Default values for :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_EXTENSIONS` target properties if set when
a target is created. For the compiler's default setting see
:variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_EXTENSIONS_DEFAULT`.
For supported CMake versions see the respective pages.
See the :manual:`cmake-compile-features(7)` manual for information on
