Nikita Nemkin c705279bae Help: Add .. versionadded directives to commands documentation
This change ony concerns directives that appear in the document body.

The guidelines for inserting version directives:

 * Baseline version is CMake 3.0, i.e. directives start at 3.1.
 * Always use `.. versionadded::` directive, avoid ad-hoc version
   references. Exception: policy pages.
 * For new command signatures, put `versionadded` on a separate line
   after the signature.
 * For a group of new signatures in a new document section,
   a single version note at the beginning of the section is sufficient.
 * For new options, put `versionadded` on a separate line before
   option description.
 * If all the option descriptions in the list are short one-liners,
   it's fine to put `versionadded` on the same line as the description.
 * If multiple option descriptions in close proximity would have
   the same ..versionadded directive, consider adding a single
   directive after the list, mentioning all added options.
 * For compact value lists and sub-option lists, put a single
  `versionadded` directive after the list mentioning all additions.
 * When a change is described in a single paragraph, put
   `versionadded` into that paragraph.
 * When only part of the paragraph has changed, separate the changed
   part if it doesn't break the flow. Otherwise, write a follow-up
   clarification paragraph and apply version directive to that.
 * When multiple version directives are close by, order earlier
   additions before later additions.
 * Indent related lists and code blocks to include them in the scope
   of `versionadded` directive.

ctest_configure
---------------
Perform the :ref:`CTest Configure Step` as a :ref:`Dashboard Client`.
::
ctest_configure([BUILD <build-dir>] [SOURCE <source-dir>] [APPEND]
[OPTIONS <options>] [RETURN_VALUE <result-var>] [QUIET]
[CAPTURE_CMAKE_ERROR <result-var>])
Configure the project build tree and record results in ``Configure.xml``
for submission with the :command:`ctest_submit` command.
The options are:
``BUILD <build-dir>``
Specify the top-level build directory. If not given, the
:variable:`CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY` variable is used.
``SOURCE <source-dir>``
Specify the source directory. If not given, the
:variable:`CTEST_SOURCE_DIRECTORY` variable is used.
``APPEND``
Mark ``Configure.xml`` for append to results previously submitted to a
dashboard server since the last :command:`ctest_start` call.
Append semantics are defined by the dashboard server in use.
This does *not* cause results to be appended to a ``.xml`` file
produced by a previous call to this command.
``OPTIONS <options>``
Specify command-line arguments to pass to the configuration tool.
``RETURN_VALUE <result-var>``
Store in the ``<result-var>`` variable the return value of the native
configuration tool.
``CAPTURE_CMAKE_ERROR <result-var>``
.. versionadded:: 3.7
Store in the ``<result-var>`` variable -1 if there are any errors running
the command and prevent ctest from returning non-zero if an error occurs.
``QUIET``
.. versionadded:: 3.3
Suppress any CTest-specific non-error messages that would have
otherwise been printed to the console. Output from the underlying
configure command is not affected.
