Evan Wilde e301cbffcc ExternalProject: Set environment variables
Add the ability to modify the environment of the various steps running
as part of an external project build. This specifically adds the ability
to set them on the configure , build , install, and test steps, as well
as exposing the `ENVIRONMENT_MODIFICATION` keyword arguments to
`ExternalProject_Add_Step`, allowing customization of the environment of
custom steps.

The values of the environment variable respect the `LIST_SEPARATOR`.

Fixes: #26963

CMake Tests Directory
*********************

This directory contains the CMake test suite.
See also the `CMake Testing Guide`_ and the `CMake Source Code Guide`_.

.. _`CMake Testing Guide`: ../Help/dev/testing.rst
.. _`CMake Source Code Guide`: ../Help/dev/source.rst

Many tests exist as immediate subdirectories, but some tests
are organized as follows.

* ``CMakeLib/``:
  Source code, used for tests, that links to the ``CMakeLib`` library
  defined over in ``Source/``.

* ``CMakeOnly/``:
  Deprecated.  Tests that run CMake to generate a project but not build it.
  Superseded by ``Tests/RunCMake/``.

* ``Find*/``:
  Tests for specific find modules that can only be run on machines with
  the corresponding packages installed.  They are enabled in
  ``CMakeLists.txt`` by undocumented options used on CI builds.

* ``Module/``:
  Tests for specific CMake modules.

* ``RunCMake/``:
  Tests that run CMake and/or other tools while precisely checking
  their return code and stdout/stderr content.  Useful for testing
  error cases and diagnostic output.

  See `RunCMake/README.rst`_.
