Craig Scott 48b380c961 FetchContent: Ignore EXACT for redirected find_package() calls
When FetchContent_MakeAvailable() populates a dependency for which
find_package() integration is enabled, all future calls to find_package()
MUST succeed using the contents of the redirection directory. The
generated config version file was not handling calls where the EXACT
keyword was given, resulting in such calls rejecting the redirection
directory's contents and continuing its search. It is not allowed to do
that. Fix the generated file to also set PACKAGE_VERSION_EXACT to
true so that calls with EXACT now accept it, as was originally intended.

Fixes: #23950

This directory contains tests that run CMake to configure a project
but do not actually build anything.  To add a test:

1. Add a subdirectory named for the test, say ``<Test>/``.

2. In ``./CMakeLists.txt`` call ``add_RunCMake_test`` and pass the
   test directory name ``<Test>``.

3. Create script ``<Test>/RunCMakeTest.cmake`` in the directory containing::

    include(RunCMake)
    run_cmake(SubTest1)
    ...
    run_cmake(SubTestN)

   where ``SubTest1`` through ``SubTestN`` are sub-test names each
   corresponding to an independent CMake run and project configuration.

   One may also add calls of the form::

    run_cmake_command(SubTestI ${CMAKE_COMMAND} ...)

   to fully customize the test case command-line.

   Alternatively, if the test is to cover running ``ctest -S`` then use::

    include(RunCTest)
    run_ctest(SubTest1)
    ...
    run_ctest(SubTestN)

   and create ``test.cmake.in``, ``CTestConfig.cmake.in``, and
   ``CMakeLists.txt.in`` files to be configured for each case.

4. Create file ``<Test>/CMakeLists.txt`` in the directory containing::

    cmake_minimum_required(...)
    project(${RunCMake_TEST} NONE) # or languages needed
    include(${RunCMake_TEST}.cmake)

   where ``${RunCMake_TEST}`` is literal.  A value for ``RunCMake_TEST``
   will be passed to CMake by the ``run_cmake`` macro when running each
   sub-test.

5. Create a ``<Test>/<SubTest>.cmake`` file for each sub-test named
   above containing the actual test code.  Optionally create files
   containing expected test results:

   ``<SubTest>-result.txt``
    Regex matching expected process result, if not ``0``
   ``<SubTest>-stdout.txt``
    Regex matching expected stdout content
   ``<SubTest>-stderr.txt``
    Regex matching expected stderr content, if not ``^$``
   ``<SubTest>-check.cmake``
    Custom result check.

  Note that when a specific platform expects differing stdout or stderr that
  can be done by adding a platform specific output file. These follow the
  naming convention of:
   ``<SubTest>-stdout-<platform_lower_case>.txt``
   ``<SubTest>-stderr-<platform_lower_case>.txt``

   Note that trailing newlines will be stripped from actual and expected
   test output before matching against the stdout and stderr expressions.
   The code in ``<SubTest>-check.cmake`` may use variables

   ``RunCMake_TEST_SOURCE_DIR``
    Top of test source tree
   ``RunCMake_TEST_BINARY_DIR``
    Top of test binary tree

   and an failure must store a message in ``RunCMake_TEST_FAILED``.

To speed up local testing, you can choose to run only a subset of
``run_cmake()`` tests in a ``RunCMakeTest.cmake`` script by using the
``RunCMake_TEST_FILTER`` environment variable. If this variable is set,
it is treated as a regular expression, and any tests whose names don't
match the regular expression are not run. For example::

  $ RunCMake_TEST_FILTER="^example" ctest -R '^RunCMake\.Example$'

This will only run subtests in ``RunCMake.Example`` that start with
``example``.
