Joachim Wuttke (o) fc7ee1ca45 Help: Override pygments CMakeLexer to support <..> and [..]
* The code snippets in the docs consist of CMake code mixed
  with syntax definition punctuation like < > [ ] ... Therefore
  a pure CMake lexer is inadequate. Here it is replaced by a
  CMake syntax definition parser.
* Fixed syntax definition snippets in FindPkgConfig.cmake to
  make best use of syntax highlighting. This source file is the
  hardest to support because it contains comparison operators
  <= = >=, which need special attention to avoid confusion
  with the placeholder indicators <...>.
* Fixed syntax in execute_process.rst (there were unbalanced
  brackets).
* Disabled syntax highlighting for long string examples in
  cmake-language.7.rst.
* No highlighting of removed syntax in CMP0049
* To inspect the outcome of this patch, see e.g. the pages
  * manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html
  * module/ExternalProject.html
  * module/FindPkgConfig.html
  which are particularly rich in complex code snippets.

CMP0049
-------
Do not expand variables in target source entries.
CMake 2.8.12 and lower performed an extra layer of variable expansion
when evaluating source file names::
set(a_source foo.c)
add_executable(foo \${a_source})
.. note: no cmake highlighting since this syntax is deprecated
This was undocumented behavior.
The OLD behavior for this policy is to expand such variables when processing
the target sources. The NEW behavior for this policy is to issue an error
if such variables need to be expanded.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.0.
CMake version |release| warns when the policy is not set and uses
OLD behavior. Use the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or
NEW explicitly.
