The OLD behaviors of all policies are deprecated, but only by
documentation. Add an explicit deprecation diagnostic for some policies
to encourage projects to port away from setting policies to OLD.
Removing FindQt.cmake gives Qt upstream a path forward to export its
own QtConfig.cmake files which can be found by find_package()
without having to explicitly specify CONFIG. Projects that still
want to use Qt3/4 can call find_package(Qt[34]), include(FindQt),
or add FindQt.cmake to their CMAKE_MODULE_PATH.
When `CMP0053` is not set to OLD or NEW then we compute both variants
in case we need to warn about a behavior change. Do not allow both
code paths to produce an uninitialized variable warning.

Before this change, install rules created by add_subdirectory()
would be executed after all of the top-level install rules, even
if they were declared before the top-level rules. This change
adds a new policy, CMP0082, which interleaves the add_subdirectory()
install rules with the other install rules so they are run in the
correct order.
These new capabilities enable to manage link directories
Two new properties:
* target properties: LINK_DIRECTORIES and INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES
One new command
* target_link_directories(): to populate target properties

Previously the command did not allow naming targets on the LHS that
were not created in the calling directory. Lift this restriction to
enable more flexible use by projects.
Targets named on the RHS will need to be looked up during generation in
the scope of the call site rather than the scope of the LHS target.
Introduce an internal syntax in `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties
to specify target names that need to be looked up in a directory other
than that containing the target on which the property is set. Add
minimal documentation of the syntax to help users that encounter it.
Unfortunately CMake previously did allow such calls in the case that
only `INTERFACE` libraries are specified, but those libraries would be
looked up in the target's directory rather than the caller's. Add
policy `CMP0079` to enable the new behavior with new lookup scope in a
compatible way.

This family enable to manage link flags
Three new properties:
* directory property: LINK_OPTIONS
* target properties: LINK_OPTIONS and INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS
Two new commands
* add_link_options(): to populate directory property
* target_link_options(): to populate target properties

While we already support `cmake --build . -- -j`, the options after `--`
are specific to the native build tool. Add new options `--parallel
[<N>]` and `-j [<N>]` to abstract this and map to the proper option
for the native build tool.
Store both the as-written and lower-case command names and use
the latter to avoid case-insensitive string comparisons.
With this I obtain 2-6% speed increase (on Windows) for the configure
step with no significant changes in memory usage. A case-insensitive
comparison is a lot slower than just calling `==` because the operator
will use things like memcmp, so prefer the latter.
The `cmSystemTools::LowerCase` function allocates a new string each time
it is called, so before this change we were allocating in:
* cmMakefile::Configure two times for each function
(to look for `cmake_minimum_required` and `project`)
* cmMakefile::ExecuteCommand twice by function by calling
cmState::GetCommand and copying the name
Now we are only allocating once by function instead of four.
The two-argument forms of `AddDefineFlag` and `RemoveDefineFlag`
need no access to `cmMakefile` class members. They are used only
within the implementation file.
The change in commit v3.11.0-rc1~480^2 (UseJava: add_jar OUTPUT_DIR
option used only for jar generation, 2017-10-12) added code of the form
`file(MAKE_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR})`. This exposed an existing
bug in `CMAKE_DISABLE_SOURCE_CHANGES` in which it does not recognize
that the top of the build tree itself is in the build tree. Fix that
now.

Policies affecting the behavior of CMake-provided macros and functions
need to be able to get the policy setting as of the call site rather
than the definition site. Add an undocumented option to do this.
Some code paths in `ExpandVariablesInString{New,Old}` were not checking
the `filename` parameter for a null pointer, but this can happen when
using the above flags together. Add the checks and a test case.

Teach `cmake_minimum_required` and `cmake_policy(VERSION)` to support a
version range of the form `<min>[...<max>]`. Define this to mean that
version `<min>` is required, but known policies up to those introduced
by `<max>` will be set to `NEW`. This will allow projects to easily
specify a range of versions for which they have been updated.
