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.

Error on non-existent target in get_target_property.
In CMake 2.8.12 and lower, the :command:`get_target_property` command accepted
a non-existent target argument without issuing any error or warning. The
result variable is set to a ``-NOTFOUND`` value.
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to issue no warning and set the result
variable to a ``-NOTFOUND`` value. The ``NEW`` behavior
for this policy is to issue a ``FATAL_ERROR`` if the command is called with a
non-existent target.
