Brad King ad3c2c0b03 Help: Normalize and consolidate standard policy advice paragraph
Every policy's documentation has a paragraph on what version of CMake
introduced it, how to set the policy, and whether CMake warns if the
policy is not set.  The wording of this paragraph has diverged across
policies over time.  Factor the paragraph out into a standard advice
document included by every policy.

Fatal error on relative paths in :prop_tgt:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` target
property.
CMake 2.8.10.2 and lower allowed the :prop_tgt:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` target
property to contain relative paths. The base path for such relative
entries is not well defined. CMake 2.8.12 issues a ``FATAL_ERROR`` if the
:prop_tgt:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` property contains a relative path.
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is not to warn about relative paths
in the ``INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES`` target property. The ``NEW`` behavior for this
policy is to issue a ``FATAL_ERROR`` if ``INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES`` contains a
relative path.
