Brad King 9d45a8be08 find_program: Find programs that are executable but not readable
This fix was first made by commit 86e6349ef7 (find_program: Find
programs that are executable but not readable, 2020-04-04,
v3.18.0-rc1~372^2) but was reverted for compatibility.  Re-introduce it
with a policy for compatibility.

-------
:command:`find_program` requires permission to execute but not to read.
In CMake 3.18 and below, the :command:`find_program` command on UNIX
would find files that are readable without requiring execute permission,
and would not find files that are executable without read permission.
In CMake 3.19 and above, ``find_program`` now prefers to require execute
permission but not read permission. This policy provides compatibility
with projects that have not been updated to expect the new behavior.
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is for ``find_program`` to require
read permission but not execute permission.
The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is for ``find_program`` to require
execute permission but not read permission.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.19. CMake version |release|
warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior. Use the
:command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly.
